Municipal Chamber of Recife, Legislative assembly in Recife, Brazil.

The Municipal Chamber of Recife sits in Parque 13 de Maio in the Boa Vista neighbourhood, in the building that housed the Escola Normal do Recife until 1962. The chamber moved in and the new premises were inaugurated in 1963, under governor Miguel Arraes and mayor Arthur Lima Cavalcanti. Three annexes on Rua Monte Castelo and Rua da União hold further offices and the administrative staff. It is the largest municipal chamber in Pernambuco, with 37 councillors.

The institution grew from colonial administrative structures into a modern legislative body that shaped policies for Recife's development. This transformation reflects how the city evolved from a colonial settlement into an independent municipality.

The building displays the political development of Recife through its archives and occasional exhibitions of local art displayed in its spaces. These collections tell the story of the city's social changes across many decades.

Visitors can attend public sessions held mostly on weekdays and should check ahead for current schedules. The official website provides access to documents and contact information for elected representatives.

Specialized committees focus on urban management, education, and public safety with direct participation from neighborhood associations. This setup allows residents to bring their concerns directly into local decision-making processes.
