Engenho Central de Piracicaba, Sugar mill complex in Piracicaba, Brazil
Located along the Rio Piracicaba, this industrial heritage site spans 80,000 square meters of green space and 12,000 square meters of buildings.
Established in 1881 by Baron of Rezende, the mill operated with French machinery featuring eight cylinders and three steam-powered generators until 1974.
The former industrial complex now functions as a cultural center, hosting the International Humor Salon and traditional Passion of Christ performances.
Visitors can explore the preserved industrial structures, walk across the suspended footbridge, and attend various cultural events throughout the year.
The facility transformed from a traditional mule-powered mill into one of Brazil's largest sugar producers, processing 100,000 bags annually during its peak.
