The city of Belém do Pará contains an area that harbors numerous stone monuments which mark and identify the Belém’s 19th century society. This area is the Cemetery of Soledade, which now function as an outdoor museum. Besides the weathering, wich makes stones change constantly, Soledade has suffered with looting and vandalism throughout its more than 150 years of existence. The presence of deterioration on the stones of tombs and mausoleums of the first public cemetery in Belém damages the quality and integrity of the material, interfering negatively in the reading of the spatial image. The Cemetery has been listed as a National Heritage Landscape since 1964 by IPHAN. Considering the importance of conservation and restoration of ancient buildings and monuments to preserve the memory of a society, this research sought to assess the deterioration by weathering and anthropogenic origin in the different stones used in tombs and mausoleums of Cemetery of Soledade. In order to generate subsidies for the conservation and restoration of these stones, the characteristics of rocks used, its state changes and the causes of deterioration were assessed. The analysis and technological investigations allowed for the identification of granite, limestone and marble and for the determination of agents and mechanisms of deterioration such as chemical action, high temperatures and microbiological action. The diagnosis of the conservation condition throrough the mapping of damages based on the Illustrated Glossary on Stone Deterioration Patterns of ICOMOS confirmed the advanced level of the pathological manifestations on the surfaces of stones, which also present lack of internal cohesion and discontinuities according with ultrasound results. To contribute to future conservation actions, restoration procedure tests to clean the monuments such as the polishing and application of bentonite plaster were performed efficiently. The results highlight the urgent need for conservation actions to reduce the rate of deterioration and mitigate the current advanced state of the same. With the data obtained, this study try to be an alert to the the situation of abandonment of the Cemetery of Soledade, promoting the importance of keeping it preserved for future generations.

This research presents the headquarters building of the D. Luiz I Hospital of the Praiseworthy Portuguese and Beneficent Society of Pará, built in 1877, located North of Brazil - in Belém city - as a cultural, material and immaterial identity memory support of the Portuguese immigrant that landed in Belém. The existing relationship between the Hospital’s architecture and the languages of Brazilian Imperial Classicism and Brazil’s Classicism in Portugal are evidenced by the transcontinental and reciprocal dialogue existing between the two Nations. The ethnography, under and anthropological look of the urban relationship mesh, was used as a tool for approaching and data obtainment that provided the recognition of the headquarter building as a historical, architectural and cultural patrimony of the health history in North of Brazil. The memory as a rapturous space of keepsakes and forgetfulness was used as a support to the study as a way to understand History. The patrimonial value connected to the object of study is evidenced by historical, architectural and cultural perspective. Therefore, this dissertation, in conclusive optics, shows factors, evidences and architectural and cultural traces that ratify the characterization of the D. Luiz I Hospital as “Document and Monument”.

Mercado de São Brás e seu entorno: tramas e sentidos de um lugar
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2014-10-29) PANTOJA, Laura Cristina Monte Palma; PONT VIDAL, Celma de Nazaré Chaves de Souza; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0782346426511704
This dissertation aims to examine the constitution of the urban history of the built environment of Sao Bras Market in Belem do Para, in the period from 1950 to 1970, an eclectic construction dating from the end of the rubber boom in the Amazon and the management of the Superintendent Antonio Lemos. The market is a monument which belongs to the patrimonial collection of the State and is active nowadays. From the notion of the urban fabric, we established relationships between the architectural and historical facts in order to investigate how they have progressed over time, resulting in a space where architecture contributes to the development of social and business relationships. Assuming that geographical proximity and economic importance of two urban facilities, the Sao Bras Market and the Belem-Bragança Iron Station, have generated a dynamic that attracted other architectures, we investigated the influence of public policies of modernization and progress, which is reflected in the appearance of the built environment and typological relations with the market. Using the methodology of case study and the combinations of interpretive / qualitative history strategies, this paper attempts to present that the intrinsic features of the buildings fulfilled their role and that events in their spaces produced perceptual phenomena in existential place. The public market and its surroundings condense social practices that associated to these phenomena ensure their continuity in the city, given the context of contemporary society.
