RESUMO
Este artigo resgata, contextualiza e caracteriza o sistema de águas e esgotos de Ouro Preto, criado em fins da década de 1880 em reação a problemas sanitários e à necessidade de modernizar a antiga capital do estado brasileiro de Minas Gerais. Baseado em pesquisas documentais realizadas em arquivos públicos, revisões bibliográficas, entrevistas e inspeções de campo, o texto desfaz equívocos referentes à autoria e data de construção do sistema. A necessidade de restaurar a centenária estação de tratamento de esgotos é enfatizada, tendo em vista sua relevância na história do saneamento brasileiro. Hoje, em contraste com o passado, a cidade de Ouro Preto lança seus esgotos in natura nos córregos que lhe deram o ouro.
