Palace Of Neoclassical Architecture In Príncipe Real Lisboa

Located in a neighborhood that today is perhaps the most cosmopolitan and vibrant in the city, this mansion presents a neoclassical architecture with palatial features so characteristic in this romantic Lisbon neighborhood surrounding the gardens of Praça do Príncipe Real.

With its genesis in the nineteenth century, a period in which countless wealthy bourgeois families build opulent mansions here, the neighborhood of Príncipe Real sees the birth of a trend that gives to this day an aura of prestige to all those who have the privilege of living on the seventh hill of Lisbon.

This mansion consists of two main floors and a third floor of mansard. The main entrance is through an imposing reception hall through which the distribution is made to the different rooms of the building.

In this space stands out the triple arcade vestibule composed of a set of elegant fluted shaft columns carved in a monoblock of limestone of lioz, surmounted by Neo-Renaissance composite capital adorned with floral festoon. These three columns are joined by striated semicircular arches. The polished stone pavement features a stereotomy with a chequered pattern of lioz and basalt.

The access to the piano nobile (noble floor) arises from the central arch of the entrance vestibule through a wide staircase of single-throw apparatus that assumes scenic prominence thanks to the zenithal light that drips from the ornate skylight that allows to illuminate the nuclear compartments of the palace.
