In an old aristocratic zone of São Paulo, close to the Campos Elíseos palace, head office of the State of São Paulo Government in past times, the Glette mansion has been referred to as the birth of Geology of the University of São Paulo. It remained in that address from 1957 until 1969, when the undergraduate course moved permanently to the distant campus of Butantã, then still in construction. In the decade of 1970, the mansion was demolished, and the entire area converted into a parking lot which continues to operate to present day. Only the fig tree, figueira, an exuberant tree growing up on the ground, was left behind as a symbol of old times. A sad ending for a rich past, recording living conditions of students in the city. This work aimed to revive the history of the mansion, since it was used as residence until its more important moments as an educational center due to the installation of the old Faculty of Philosophy, Sciences, and Letters.
