Academia Paulista de Letras, Language regulator in Vila Buarque, São Paulo, Brazil.
Academia Paulista de Letras is a language regulator institution located in a building with art deco elements and geometric lines in central São Paulo. The premises house offices, meeting rooms, and library spaces where literary events take place.
The academy was founded in 1909 and moved to its current location at Largo do Arouche in 1955. This relocation marked a new phase in its role as an important literary institution in Brazil.
The academy maintains an important collection of Brazilian literary works and regularly invites writers, critics, and scholars for discussions. Visitors can discover both contemporary and classical works of Brazilian literary culture here.
Visitors can attend literary events and book club meetings that take place regularly and require prior registration. The location is easily accessible by public transport and sits in a busy city center area.
The building is registered as both a CONDEPHAAT Good and a Conpresp Good, meaning it holds dual recognition as an architectural and cultural heritage site. This double designation is rare and highlights the place's importance to the city.
