历史背景
The Church of the Holy See was demolished in 1933 along with four other blocks of colonial and imperial buildings. The Archbishop's Palace remains. Debates over the destruction led to federal-level protection of historic assets and eventually to the National Institute of Historic and Artistic Heritage. Many buildings have been renovated since the 1930s, with revitalization of whole blocks from the 1990s. More than 800 buildings have restored façades and interiors, many adapted as small museums and cultural centers.
