Dom Pedro II Home, Neoclassical mansion in Boa Viagem, Brazil
The Dom Pedro II Home extends 120 meters along Avenida Luís Tarquínio with two symmetrical wings and features sash windows topped with lunettes on both levels.
Built in the early 1800s as a private residence, the mansion transformed into a retirement home in 1887 and received its current name in 1943.
The building houses the largest collection of ceramic urns and statues from Santo António do Vale Factory in Bahia, displayed throughout its grand halls.
Located at number 18-20 on Avenida Luís Tarquínio, the structure currently operates under the Municipal Secretariat for Social Promotion and Fight against Poverty.
