Florianópolis Travel Information
Eighteenth Century Mansions
The row houses on Rua Fernando Machado on the 16 and the Praça XV de Novembro 352, 348, 344 and 340 maintain the aesthetic character of the Luso-Brazilian architecture, combining the alignments of the doors and windows, glazing the flags, the railings of the balconies decorated, and high-reliefs by weight of eclectic inspiration, in the fronts. Two terraced houses still remain in the back of the lots, their historical gardens, typical of urban colonial occupation. The entire set is listed by county.
One of the last remnants of colonial architecture, ground floor, with tiled frontage, can be enjoyed on the same block (at 320), and the former Treasury Fiscal Police, which was, until 1838, the home of the provider of Real, Joao Prestes Melo.
Location: Rua Fernando Machado, Praça XV - Centro de Florianópolis
