Dona Ana Joaquina’s Palace
Dona Ana Joaquina dos Santos Silva lived in this imposing Portuguese-style palace located in the Bungo neighbourhood, in the commercial area of the lower part of town. Until 2019, the palace housed the Tribunal Provincial de Luanda or Luanda Court of Justice. The replica of the palace stands now as a monument to her success.
