In this research, I long to reflect about São Miguel Paulista district and its everyday happenings, especially those related to the presence of São Miguel Arcanjo chapel. This religious temple is considered one of the oldest of its type in the city of São Paulo, that preserves its original state. The São Miguel Paulista district, located in east side of town, was, in the early years of colony settlement, an indigenous site called Ururaí. The district occupation process is, therefore, linked to the foundation of São Paulo city, due to being a strategically well located place, favorable to Christian faith consolidation on Piratininga plateau, being for that, necessary the construction of a Chapel that would serve as an agglutination point for these Indians. The objective of this research is to analyze the social dynamism that were established and are still established around this cultural heritage and the actions that make possible its preservation, focusing especially the timing that comprehend the registration as listed building and the first restoration made by IPHAN (1939) and the registration as listed building made by Condephaat (1974), until the present days. Thus, public power actions were analyzed, mainly, those related to the registrations as listed building, restoration, and measures aimed to its protection and, yet, the participation of social individuals that interact with this heritage and that have experienced and still experience this moments and that have actions directed towards its preservation. On this way, I pursue to recognize the São Miguel Arcanjo Chapel as part of a social experience that involve interests and relations of power that give different meanings to this patrimony, analyzing the stress of those that perceive it as a heritage and fight for its preservation and, on the other hand, of those who see it as an old thing and, therefore, non-aligned with the progress . Served as source of research the documents produced by official government agencies and oral testimony of people having relations with the Chapel and São Miguel district, as well as the different outputs of these individuals, pursuing to understand the historical role of this cultural heritage
