The Patio do Colegio marks the place where the city of Sao Paulo was founded. It is now a center for cultural activity. Initially a Jesuit school was built in this spot with the help of the local Guaianas Native American inhabitants. Besides the school itself and a church, the Achieta Museum is also housed here, displaying original sculptures by the Guarani native inhabitants, and a model reproduction of Sao Paulo in the 16th century.
