Description
The "Alfândega" (Customs House) is from  the XV century, and had a gateway in  pointed arch, set back regarding to the present façade. A  porch  extended along the medieval façade. In the XVI century, its new gateway, in  round arch, and inlaid with  manueline motifs, went over the street. On the end of the XIX century, the  windows were torn, among other works. In 2004, the building was restored and  its long history was preserved. Custom-house, first, later was the Police Station, and  today  the House of Culture of Miranda.
