The Sertanista House, also known as Caxingui House, is a significant historical site located in the neighborhood of Caxingui, São Paulo. This residence, built in the middle of the 17th century, is a prime example of Brazilian colonial architecture. It showcases several typical characteristics of the bandeirista house, including walls made of rammed earth, a four-fluted roof, and an earthen floor. The house's history and architectural style make it a fascinating destination for those interested in Brazil's colonial past.
Over the years, the Sertanista House has served as a venue for several museums. These include the Sertanista Museum, which was dedicated to indigenous culture, the Indigenous Culture Center of the Union of Indigenous Nations, and the Rossini Tavares de Lima Folklore Museum. These institutions have used the house as a platform to showcase various aspects of Brazilian culture and history, making it a rich source of knowledge for visitors.
The Sertanista House is part of the architectural collection of the Museum of the City of São Paulo. This collection includes 12 other historic houses spread throughout all regions of the city of São Paulo. These houses, like the Sertanista House, are characterized by their historical significance and architectural style. They serve as educational spaces for heritage and may contain contemporary art exhibits, photographs, or furniture from the museum's own collection.
