Beco do Pinto

About Beco do Pinto

The Beco do Pinto, also known as Beco do Colégio, is a passage located between the Casa Número Um and Solar da Marquesa de Santos in the center of São Paulo. It links the streets Roberto Simonsen and Bitterncourt Rodrigues. In Brazil's colonial times, it had the function of allowing the transit of people and animals between the Largo da Sé and the meadow of the Tamanduateí River. Today, under the administration of Casa da Imagem, it houses projects developed for the space by contemporary artists. The passage has been integrated as part of the Museu da Cidade de São Paulo.
