People's Palace.

It stands at Baltazar Lopes da Silva Avenue, Mindelo, São Vicente Island, Cape Verde. This colonial building was meant to be the Governor's house and made between 1858 and 1874 with a single floor; it was decided to add another floor, which was concluded in 1934. After the independence, in 1975, it was renamed as People's Palace and works were made to overcome its decay. Law courts were installed here until 2008, when a specific building for them was concluded. New works were achieved in 2009/2010 to adapt it as museum and art exhibitions centre, and it functions now within such purposes.
