Plaza Matheu, Public square in La Plata, Argentina.
Plaza Matheu features stone paths, lawn areas, mature trees, and a central monument dedicated to Domingo Matheu at the intersection of Avenida 1 and 66.
The plaza received its name in 1901 to honor Domingo Matheu, a member of the First Government Junta, with his statue installed as centerpiece in 1920.
