Abstract

Through the notion of memory and archive, we are going to discuss a series of articles published by the press in 1974, about the remains and the construction of a mausoleum in memory of Hermann Blumenau.  After a letter questioning the legitimacy of the construction, emerged a long polemic that involved distinct political sectors of the city. It was given visibility to a set of transformations related to a new conception of urban space, its politics investments in the past and the identity inventions. The germanness that was seen as a problem for the Vargas nationalism  in the 1930s, were positivity in the 1970s through the emergence of a notion of regional culture, wich started to invest in their relationship with a past.
