The purpose of this study is to contribute to the creation of guidelines for virtual museum interface projects regarding their authenticity. Through the deductive method, when working with theories about the authentic, we analyzed a virtual museum site model (Era Virtual) to create authenticity assessment indicators for virtual musem sites. After theoretical and practical analyses, a pilot questionnaire was designed to validate, through the response of the public, the indicators we developed and to develop others, if necessary. Then, we defined our sample, the final questionnaires were applied, the results obtained were analyzed, and the guidelines for virtual museum interface were set out. We found that authenticity is a dynamic concept that concerns both issues verifiable through the subject matter of a digital object and non-material issues that emerge from the relationship between a person and that object. The sample surveyed believed that virtual museums were authentic mainly for their informative value.
