Tamagnini Barbosa

Tamagnini Barbosa is a two-story pink residence with Mediterranean architectural features located in Penha, Macau. The building overlooks the Pearl River Delta, and its grounds include gardens that frame the property.

The building was constructed in the mid-19th century and served Governor Artur Tamagnini during his tenure until 1940. It represents the transition from a private residence to an official administrative headquarters.

The residence carries the name of a former governor and reflects Macau's Portuguese administrative era. Visitors can observe from outside the pink facade and surrounding gardens, which showcase the European architectural heritage of the city's past.

The residence sits on Penha Hill and is not typically open to the public, but can be viewed from outside. Visitors should explore the area on foot and enjoy the exterior view from street level.

The building temporarily served as a hospital to address child mortality rates before resuming administrative purposes. This shift in use reflects changing needs during the colonial period.
