Pátio do Colégio, a historical Jesuit church and school, holds a significant place in the history of São Paulo, Brazil. It is the site where the city was founded back in 1554. The church and school have undergone various transformations over the centuries, reflecting the city's evolving history and culture.
In 1979, a museum dedicated to Father José de Anchieta was inaugurated within the Pátio do Colégio. The museum houses an extensive collection of over 600 items, including colonial paintings, altarpieces, sculptures, documents, and iconography related to the Jesuit mission in Brazil. This provides a rich insight into the country's colonial history and the role of the Jesuits in it.
