This REPORT presents the exploration and architectural record of an underground space found within the facilities of a primary school, located in the Historical Center of the City of Mérida Yucatán, Mexico. The characteristics of this space were analyzed, finding several constructive and functional similarities with medieval Spanish-Arabic hydraulic works. The foundations were laid for the formal generation of a heritage intervention project that didactically and recreationally integrates these spaces into the current context for the revaluation of this historical heritage and its immediate surroundings.

Palavras-chave : underground space; cistern; Spanish-Arabic architecture; Mérida; Mexico.
