Aduana de Iquique, Historical customs building in Iquique, Chile.
The Aduana de Iquique stands as a two-story rectangular structure with an octagonal watchtower above the entrance and features interior courtyards with corridors.
Built in 1871 under Peruvian President Jose Balta's orders, this customs house replaced a previous structure destroyed by the 1868 tsunami.
The building combines colonial architecture with neoclassical elements, displaying Oregon pine beams in its northern and eastern warehouse sections.
The Naval Museum of Iquique, located within the customs house, exhibits remains from the Esmeralda corvette and artifacts from the Battles of Iquique.
Following a fire in February 2015 that damaged the second floor, the building underwent extensive restoration while preserving its historical elements.
