Description

The initial project (1795), by Manuel Caetano de Sousa, underwent a significant change with the new project (1802), of neoclassical inspiration in carved stonework, by the architects. Francisco Xavier Fabri and José da Costa e Silva.

The Palace was inhabited with many interruptions, and even unfinished it functioned as a Royal Palace after D. Luis I (1833-1889), who settled there definitively. In the lobby, the 47 statues signed by Portuguese artists are worth mentioning.

Closed after the implantation of the Republic, the interior of the Palace was musealized, from 1968, offering an important collection of furniture, jewelery, silver and jewelery, with emphasis on the collection of the Portuguese Crown Jewels.
