    This square owes its name to the fact that taxes were formerly levied on goods arriving in the city from the south.

    This square houses one of Coimbra's architectural symbols: the Hotel Astória, built in 1926, and the Bank of Portugal Building, both by Adães Bermudes. It also houses the statue of Joaquim António de Aguiar by sculptor Costa Mota (uncle).

    Connected to Largo da Portagem is the main street in downtown Coimbra, Rua Ferreira Borges, a street currently closed to traffic and home to several traditional shops.

    Largo da Portagem is the main square as well as the center of the city of Coimbra, next to the Ponte de Santa Clara and on the Mondego river.
