Constructed before 1894, Sir Robert Ho Tung Library originally belonged to D. Carolina Cunha. The Mansion was later bought by Sir Robert Ho Tung in 1918 to be his villa.

In 1941, when Hong Kong fell into the hands of the Japanese, Sir Robert moved to Macao and stayed until the war ended in 1945. He passed away in 1955. According to his will, the building was to be presented to the Macao Government to be used as a public library.

The Sir Robert Ho Tung Library was opened in 1958.
