Largo dos Açorianos, Monument plaza in Porto Alegre, Brazil.
The public square contains the Azorean Monument, a metallic sculpture symbolizing united figures in the shape of a ship's hull.
The Stone Bridge, constructed in 1848 during the Duke of Caxias government, remains at the square with its original structure preserved.
The monument commemorates the Azorean couples who established Porto Alegre in 1752, marking their contributions to the city's development.
The square sits at the intersection of Loureiro da Silva and Borges de Medeiros avenues, near the State Administrative Center of Rio Grande do Sul.
A water mirror beneath the three arched pillars of the Stone Bridge creates a reflecting pool effect within the square.
