Flinders Monument

Monument Monument commemorating explorer Matthew Flinders

Monument in South Australia commemorating navigator Matthew Flinders; visitors stop for maritime history, interpretive plaques and nearby coastal viewpoints along driving routes.

A public urban square in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil named for Marshal Floriano Peixoto. It functions as a local civic space rather than a large tourist attraction.

Used primarily for everyday social activity and municipal functions, the square provides open space within the city for gatherings and circulation. It does not have a single dominant monument widely known beyond the region.

The name commemorates Floriano Peixoto, a 19th-century Brazilian president, and reflects a common practice in Brazil of naming public squares after national figures. The site has served local civic and social purposes since it was laid out by municipal planners.

Located within the urban fabric of Belo Horizonte in the state of Minas Gerais, the square sits inside the city’s street grid and is accessible from nearby neighborhoods and transit routes.

  • Name origin: Honors Brazil's second president, Marshal Floriano Peixoto (1843-1895).
