Palacete Princesa Isabel, Cultural center in Santa Cruz, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

The white neoclassical mansion features symmetrical windows, a central entrance with columns, and ornamental details throughout its two-story structure.

Built in the 1880s as an administrative headquarters for the Santa Cruz slaughterhouse, the building later housed the Santa Isabel School for workers' children.

The Palacete now functions as a social center offering music lessons, cultural exhibitions, and educational programs for the local community.

Visitors can access the building through scheduled appointments and participate in guided tours that explain the architectural and historical elements.

Archaeological research conducted within the mansion grounds has revealed artifacts from different periods of Rio de Janeiro's development.
