Portugal Images: Câmara Municipal de Loulé (Loulé Town Hall)
The Câmara Municipal de Loulé (Loulé Town Hall) in Loulé in the Algarve is one of the finest buildings in the town.
Loulé Town Hall dates from the first half of the 19th century and was originally a private residence. On the death of the owner, Captain José Rafael Pinto, the building was purchased by the city council, then housed in part of the Convento do Espírito Santo, in 1885. The facade was remodeled in 1942 but overall the building retains its original layout. It currently hosts the majority of municipal services, which extend across the different areas of the building.
