3. • This article seeks to analyze comparatively morphological
structures as a result from German immigration’s occupation
in Espírito Santo, from middle XIX century. For this
investigation, Gunter Weimer’s advanced studies it’s assumed
as reference, concentrated in the decades of 1970 and 1980,
about German architecture in Brazil’s southern region. The
intention is to recognize and present by mappings some
morphological configuration’s particularities of urban sites
located in Espírito Santo;
• It is recognized, in the territory’s dimension, both the
adoption of courses of rivers as structural elements of land
parceling, as the location of settlements in high and cold
lands. In urban dimension, it is identified three types of
nucleation: Strassendorf, urban form structured by central
trade route; Angerdorf, urban form that the central trade
route widens open to a square; and Haufendorf, urban form
derived from a spontaneous growth.
5. • German immigration urban form in Brazil:
• The city must be safe over a mountain’s back or protected by a river;
must have a market, a long and wide main street that reaches a large
square in the center. It’s streets’ system should be understandable at
first sight ... The church with its cemetery should be separated from
the traffic, but so that the largest nave and the bell tower, emerging
from the housetops, dominates the main square. (Peluso, 1991,
p.392, cited in Mattedi, 2009).

11. Conclusion
• Importantly, this is an initial approach to German colonization in Brazil urban
heritage studies, especially in Espírito Santo experience.
• The urban context stands out the settlement from nucleation, and the
structured pathway dominance surrounding a road, generally central and
characterized functionally by the prevalence of commercial activity. The built
settle, consisting of peculiar architecture and detached and distant position,
distinguished the single central tower church, if any.
• The urban morphology analysis, from Günter Weimer, in Santa Leopoldina and
Santa Maria de Jetibá, in Espírito Santo, presents a Strassendorf formal type
predominant, ie the urban design structured from a main street, commercial,
one of the German colonization central marks in Brazil, in addition, it’s noted the
river role in choosing the occupation locus, however, is not a protagonist urban
form role.
• As future deployments, it’s pointed out urban morphology related
investigations in other immigrants cities (Weimer, 2004) in Espírito Santo; from a
deepening in specific literature, focused on Werner Radig, in German language,
with the objective of identifying and mapping the immigration nucleus settle in
Espírito Santo, from the nineteenth century, territorialized in the Santa Maria da
Vitoria and Jucu river basins.
