Located on the main square of Manaus, the Palace of Justice (Palácio de Justiça) was constructed during the late 19th century, a period known as Brazil’s ‘rubber boom.’ The palace’s grand architecture, blending French Second Empire and Neoclassical styles, reflects the immense wealth of the region at that time. Visitors can admire the intricate details and imposing structure, which stands as a historical landmark.
