Palacete Guerreirinho is a notable building located in Faro, built in the neoclassical style by the architect Norte Júnior. It was completed in 1936.
The interior of the mansion features decorative sections on the walls with various depictions, including one of the Palacete da Fonte da Pipa in Loulé, which also belonged to the same owners.
The mansion is located on a corner, between Ventura Coelho and Infante D. Henrique streets. Nearby, a building was constructed in the 1970s where remnants of a valuable Roman mosaic were discovered. This mosaic is currently on display at the Municipal Museum of Faro, suggesting the possibility of important archaeological remains under the foundations of Palacete Guerreirinho.
For several decades, Palacete Guerreirinho has served as an Officers' Mess for the Armed Forces.
