Hidráulica Moinhos de Vento, Water treatment facility in Moinhos de Vento district, Brazil.

The eclectic architecture building features French-inspired gardens across six hectares, with decorative statues representing the Guaíba Lake rivers throughout the grounds.

Built between 1927 and 1928, the facility modernized Porto Alegre's water supply system, transforming from the Companhia Hidráulica Guaibense founded in 1885.

The structure houses the Antonio Klinger Filho Historical-Cultural Center since 1986, presenting contemporary art exhibitions and various cultural events throughout the year.

Located in an upscale neighborhood of Porto Alegre, the site combines water treatment operations with public recreational spaces and art galleries.

The gardens contain concrete and wooden benches from the former Araújo Vianna Auditorium, alongside statues originally installed in Matrix Square in 1867.
