Abstract
The word “museification” has been used in the reflections of various disciplinary fields. It is a concept that has been little discussed and lacks epistemological clarity. Thus, this article presents a conceptual approach dedicated to understanding the process of museification, seeking a basis to formulate its definition and to enable territorial analysis. This was a qualitative research, with a case study in which eight processes of museification, identified in the conceptual foundation, are used in the analysis of the Caravaggio Circuit (Santa Teresa, ES, Brazil). The result demonstrates the true link between the museification of the territory and the cultural itineraries.
