Geraldo)”, placed in the city core, rose in the place previously occupied by two XVII century houses (Cf. PEREIRA, A. M. de S., 2000). Laterally connected to other two proprieties, the building, of a rectangular plan and gifted of a wide garden with a covered well, in the back, is spread over two floors.
