Located at 33 Rua do Carmo in Funchal, Madeira, this historical building was likely constructed in 1836 as the Sha'ar Hashamayim Synagogue, serving the local Jewish congregation. Built in the Moorish Revival architectural style, the structure reflects the aesthetic preferences of its era while functioning as a religious center. Now recognized as a cultural heritage site with pending monument classification, it stands as a notable example of nineteenth-century synagogue architecture in Portugal.
