Fazenda Monte Alegre, Historic coffee plantation in Ribeirão Preto, Brazil.
The Monte Alegre Farm consists of colonial-style buildings, including a main house, agricultural pavilions, and professor residences spread across extensive grounds.
Francisco Schmidt acquired the property in 1890 and transformed it into one of Brazil's largest coffee producers, with over 10 million coffee plants.
The main building now houses the Municipal Historical Museum, preserving artifacts and documents from the region's agricultural development period.
The farm complex is located at Rua Cuiabá 370 and currently functions as part of the University of São Paulo campus in Ribeirão Preto.
The property features a 19th-century European garden design with fountains, statues, and a bandstand, though requiring restoration.
