Casa Caetano de Campos, Educational building in República District, São Paulo, Brazil

The Casa Caetano de Campos features 225 windows across its three floors, with a width of 86 meters and depth of 37 meters in its lateral pavilions.

Built in 1894 as the first Normal School of São Paulo, the building became part of the University of São Paulo in 1934, hosting the Faculty of Philosophy.

The neoclassical structure, designed by architects Ramos de Azevedo and Domiziano Rossi, represents the educational reforms of the Republican period in São Paulo state.

The building currently houses the São Paulo State Education Department and stands at 53 República Square, near the República metro station.

In 1976, local citizens successfully prevented the demolition of the building, which was planned to make way for the East-West metro line construction.
