Built in 1518 in Funchal's Sé district, the Casa da Alfândega do Funchal is a National Monument of Portugal that exemplifies the Pombaline and Manueline architectural styles. Originally constructed as a custom house, this heritage building has since been repurposed to serve as the seat of parliament in Funchal, reflecting both its historical significance as a center of colonial administration and its contemporary importance to regional governance.
