SOLAR BELA VISTA

Nowadays it is a cultural centre under the supervision of Sesc. Built by the merchant Colonel Aureliano de Medeiros who designed this residence surrounded by gardens. He had the ironwork brought from Germany and the crystal, carpets and porcelain from France. He brought many decorative objects from across the Atlantic to show the owner's wealth. Years later, the building housed the Court of Justice and, in the 1930s, it became the Bela Vista Hotel, one of the most refined hotels in Natal at the time.
