Domus Municipalis
The Domus Municipalis ( lat, municipal house) is a Romanesque architecture, Romanesque building in the northeastern municipality of Bragança Municipality, Bragança in Portugal. The exact function of this building, even after research completed in the 20th century, is still largely unknown: it could have served as cistern, but there are doubts if this was its primary function.

Its construction was, most likely, in the first half of the 13th century, coinciding with the foundation of the cistern. In 1501, in the published writings of the Abbot of Baçal, the author referred to the local record of Martim Anes, who spoke of the construction of the ''Domus'' during his lifetime. In this account, Martin Anes stated that it was used as a meeting place for the ''"good men"'' of the municipality. By 1503, the ''Domus'' was remodelled to ...
