In the present work the constant pressure molar heat capacity of the spinel Al2MnO4 was measured between 2 K and 873 K. In the interval between 2 K and 300 K a relaxation calorimeter was employed. The data indicated the presence of a thermal anomaly around 33 K, whose magnetic component could be evidenced through measurements of the heat capacity with a constant applied magnetic field, and also through specific magnetization data as a function of temperature. The entropic contribution of the thermal anomaly was considered in the calculation of the molar entropy of the oxide at 298.15 K (116.05 more or less 5.2 J/mol.K), and the calculated value has proven to be consistent with values published earlier for other spinel compounds. In the interval between 323 and 873 K a differential scanning calorimeter was employed. The data were quantitatively modeled with the function proposed by Berman and Brown, including the heat capacity value obtained at 298.15 K accessed through the relaxation calorimeter route. By using the molar entropy at 298.15 K, the values of the parameter estimated for the Berman and Brown model with the heat capacity data at elevated temperatures, and an estimative for the heat of formation of the spinel Al2MnO4 extracted from the literature, it was possible to construct a model for the thermal dependence of the Gibbs energy of this compound valid between 298.15 K and 2114 K. The model was successfully tested in the thermodynamic assessment of the properties of the system Al2O3-MnO.
