The Liceu Dr. Francisco Machado[note 1] is a neoclassical / Portuguese colonial former school building in the Colmera suco of Dili, capital city of East Timor.

[1] By governmental decree of 22 January 1938, a new high school was founded to provide indigenous Timorese with sufficient education to allow them to enter the lower level of the public administration.

It was installed in the school building, and named after Francisco Vieira Machado [pt], the Portuguese Minister for the Colonies (1936–1944) who was responsible for its foundation.

[7] In 1961, the school building was enlarged on the basis of plans drawn up by Eurico Pinto Lopes and António Sousa Mendes.

However, those plans were not fully implemented, as only the wing facing the Avenida Cidade de Lisboa (now Rua Formosa) and a new elementary school were built.

The building's exterior was rebuilt along the lines of the original design, but its interior was substantially modernised to house the Faculty of Education, Arts and Humanities of the UNTL.
