The state governor's Palace, built in 1841. The name of the building derives from the fact that the daughters of Emperor Dom Pedro II used to play in the palace's gardens.

Designed in 1786 by Governor José César Meneses, it was built in 1841 by engineer Morais Âncora, at the behest of Governor Francisco do Rego Barros, where the Royal Treasury used to be.
