REAL ADUANA DE PORTOBELO
The Royal Customs House is one of the most important civil engineering structures of the colonial period in Central America. Built between 1630 and 1638, the building was partly destroyed in 1744 by William Kinghills, then rebuilt fifteen years later according to new plans. In 1882, an earthquake toppled the north facade and roof. Although it had already benefited from renovation work, the latest project, inaugurated in June 2023, has restored this colonial jewel to its former glory, both architecturally and pedagogically, through its museum.
