A holdover from the colonial era is a Portuguese residence from the 18th or 19th century, surrounded by gardens with fountains. In addition, a former church, buildings for the servants and barracks stand on the hill. From here you can see as far as the Banda Sea. The area is surrounded by a wall in which you can still see the loopholes for the cannons. The Japanese occupiers during the Second World War also left their mark on the residence.

On February 7, 1944, 14 B-24s of the Australian Air Force bombed the Japanese in Lautém.
