Palácio dos Azulejos, Heritage building in central Campinas, Brazil

The Palácio dos Azulejos features Portuguese tiles on its facade, twin buildings with separate entrances, and a neoclassical architectural design spanning 2100 square meters.

Built in 1878 for Baron of Itatiba, the palace served as Campinas City Hall and courthouse from 1908 to 1968 before becoming a cultural institution.

The palace houses the Museum of Image and Sound, preserving local history through exhibitions and maintaining sections of the Municipal Archive.

Located on Regente Feijó Street, the building underwent major restoration in 2004 and remains under the management of the Municipal Secretary of Culture.

The construction combines traditional rammed earth techniques with imported materials, including marbles, chandeliers, and decorative metalwork from the 19th century.
