Usina Chaminé Cultural Center
History
Originally, the building was intended to be the city's sewage treatment plant. It was built in 1910 by the English company Manáos Improviments, concessionaire of sanitation services, contracted by the state government starting in 1906.
With neo-Renaissance characteristics, the building has, on the right side, a 24-meter chimney, built with compact refractory bricks, crowned by a molded iron hat. This is why it became known as Chimney.
Registered as an Amazonas Historical Monument in 1988, the building was remodeled in 1993 as the Chaminé Arts Center to house the State Pinacoteca (art gallery), with temporary exhibitions.
In 2002 the building received a new renovation, already as Chaminé Plant, and was reopened as part of the actions of the Preservation of the Nature Program of the Cultural and Historical Memory of Amazonas.
