The present work aims to analyze the calculation, the application, and the effective application of the main Brazilian urban tax, the IPTU, in the municipality of Mariana, in Minas Gerais. It also sought to examine its facets and the possibilities of its use in that territory. It started with empirical analysis, analysis of local urban legislation, the tax code and bibliographic survey on the topic. Thus, it was realized the potential of the tax to be used for tax collection, as a device for territorial regulation and to encourage the preservation of the built heritage that the city houses, but which is still underutilized and needs dynamization to reach its reach promoting a more equitable city.

Palabras clave : city of Mariana; IPTU tax; property tax; municipal finance; taxation.
