Law School, University of São Paulo, Public law school at University of São Paulo, Brazil
The Law School at the University of São Paulo is a public law faculty in the Glicério neighborhood of central São Paulo. Its five-story stone building occupies a full city block and displays classical columns, arches and cornices along the facade.
This institution opened in 1827 as one of the first higher education establishments in independent Brazil. It trained many politicians and lawyers who shaped the country during the imperial era and early republic.
The arcades in the inner courtyard serve as an informal meeting point where students discuss legal cases between lectures or prepare for exams. Wall murals and inscriptions recall earlier generations of lawyers who began their academic careers here.
The main building is generally accessible to public visitors on weekdays, though the library requires prior registration. The inner courtyard offers a quiet spot to rest and works well as part of a walk through the historic downtown area.
A German professor named Julius Frank has been buried in a courtyard grave since 1841, when Protestant burials were not allowed in Catholic cemeteries. His tomb has remained over the decades and is noticed by students and visitors as part of the institutional history.
