Site of the Candinha, Colonial casa grande in Guarulhos, Brazil.
The Site of Candinha spans 195 square meters and features twelve rooms with fourteen windows constructed from traditional rammed earth techniques.
Originally acquired by Amador Bueno da Veiga in 1717, the property passed to Antonio Bueno da Silveira who built the house around 1825.
The building integrates a municipal natural park dedicated to Black culture preservation, maintaining original colonial period architectural elements and religious artifacts.
The structure remains closed to visitors due to preservation requirements, with ongoing restoration efforts focused on the wooden oratory and historical elements.
The house contains a specially designed window on its southern facade that provided direct supervision over agricultural activities during colonial times.
