About Vila Jardim
What are the main landmarks in Vila Jardim?
A 1959 settlement with no monument to show for it. Vila Jardim's entry runs to administrative facts and a settlement story, with no church, square or monument recorded under the bairro name. The sights belong to the city.
Porto Alegre holds the museums and the older streets that bring visitors to Rio Grande do Sul, and a walk through Vila Jardim gives streets of housing instead.
What is the history of Vila Jardim?
The law came first, the arrivals after. A statute of 7 December 1959 created Vila Jardim as a bairro of Porto Alegre, and the ground filled out over the decades that followed as families came down from the interior of Rio Grande do Sul through the 1970s and 1980s. Before the statute, Porto Alegre wrote nothing down here.
What the sources hand over is the statute, the migration and a Portuguese name that the city still files the district under.
