Largo da Memória, Pedestrian zone and leisure facility in central São Paulo, Brazil.

The triangular square features stone benches, staircases, and paths connecting three historical streets in downtown São Paulo's commercial district.

The Piques Obelisk, constructed in 1814, stands as the first public monument in São Paulo, marking the end of a severe drought period.

The space served as a gathering point for muleteers transporting goods, with a fountain providing water for travelers and their animals.

Located next to Anhangabaú metro station, the square connects to multiple pedestrian walkways and commercial establishments in the city center.

The neocolonial renovation in 1919 added decorative tiles displaying São Paulo's coat of arms and transformed the square's architectural layout.
