Across the bustling streets of Montevideo, stands a proud testament to Uruguayan history and education: the Liceo 11 Bruno Mauricio de Zabala. Established in 1953, the Liceo 11 Bruno Mauricio de Zabala initially opened its doors in a charming, if slightly cramped, old mansion. Imagine, if you will, the grandeur of this historic building, echoing with the voices of generations past. This original structure, nestled at the corner of Grecia and Mexico streets, witnessed a remarkable transformation in 2004. A new, modern building arose on the same plot of land, further cementing Liceo 11 Bruno Mauricio de Zabala’s place in the community. However, the story doesn’t end there. The old mansion, a place so intertwined with the school’s history, wasn’t forgotten. A wave of nostalgia and a desire to preserve its legacy swept over former students, teachers, and residents. They banded together, determined to breathe new life into the old mansion. In a heartwarming display of community spirit, a cultural project named “Primavera Peraza” was spearheaded. They entered the Participatory Budget in 2008, a testament to their commitment. Their hard work paid off: the project secured funding, paving the way for the mansion’s remarkable transformation. Since 2012, the building has been home to the Javier de Viana Public Library, a fitting tribute to a space once teeming with knowledge and eager minds. This wasn’t the end of the shared space. Alongside the library, the Liceo 72 found its home within the revitalized walls. The original gymnasium continues to serve both schools, echoing with the laughter and energy of new generations.
