The Moorish Barracks, erected in 1874 in the São Lourenço district of Macau, stands as a distinctive example of Moorish architecture from the Portuguese colonial era. Originally built as a military barracks, the structure now serves as the headquarters of the Marine and Water Bureau. Recognized as part of Macau's Heritage of Portuguese Influence, the building was designated a historical site in 2005 when the Historic Centre of Macau gained UNESCO World Heritage status.
