Mangazina di Rei is the second oldest stone building on Bonaire. It was originally used to store provisions for the government slaves.
The structure has recently been completely restored. A museum, a open air museum of historic houses and a botanical garden are in the process of being completed. The Mangazina is an important part of the history of Rincon and her people.
The expensive ‘Mangazina di Rei’ had been build already in 1824. It appears on a list of government possessions and is noted for 1,500 pesos, i.e. 2700 guilders. It was equipped with a tiled roof.
