Theatro da Paz

Theatro da Paz is a theater located in the Praça da República on the city of Belém, capital of the state of Pará, in Brazil. It was built following neoclassical architectural lines during the golden age of rubber in Amazon Basin. It is considered the most important culture house in northern Brazil. Its name has been suggested by bishop D. Macedo Costa, who also launched the foundation stone of the theater on March 3, 1869.

Theatro da Paz has suffered minor alterations along the years to its façade, namely the reduction of the number of columns over the main entrance. Its architectural lines, however, remain unaltered. It was listed as a historic structure by National Institute of Historic and Artistic Heritage in 1963.
