The Casa de Azulejo (English: "House of Azulejos") is a 19th-century historic home in the Saúde neighborhood in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. It was built in the mid-19th century as a large urban residence for the family of the businessman Joaquim Vitorino da Rocha, but its garden was lost to the dense urbanization of Salvador in the 20th century. The house retains its large collection of exterior azulejos, or Portuguese tiles. It additionally has an example of a large exterior staircase that appeared in Bahia in the late 18th century. The staircase additionally has a fine iron railing imported from Scotland.[1][2][3]
It was listed as a historic structure of the State of Bahia by the Artistic and Cultural Institute of Bahia (IPAC) in 2002.[2]
