Azenha Bridge

Without a fight, the revolutionaries asserted their absolute control over the city and gained a lot of support in the interior of the province.

The City Council, convened extraordinarily by Bento Gonçalves on September 21, swore in Marciano Pereira Ribeiro, who was fourth in the general order of precedence of the vice-presidents of the province.

[2][3] On June 29, 2008, the Azenha Bridge reopened after renovation featuring a theatrical presentation of the historic battle between the revolutionaries and the imperials.

The restoration cost R$531,000 and preserved the original features of the bridge, which was painted to prevent graffiti and given a new lighting system.

However, the steps leading down to the Dilúvio Stream have been modified to prevent people from occupying the lower part of the bridge.
