    The monument to Professor Agostinho da Silva in Barca d’Alva is a beautiful sculpture created by the sculptor Eugénio Macedo. This monument pays tribute to Agostinho da Silva, a prominent Portuguese philosopher, poet and essayist.
    The sculpture represents Agostinho da Silva sitting on a bench, in life size, and is located in the open-air amphitheater of the river port of Barca d’Alva. This place allows visitors to sit next to the figure of the philosopher, offering a space for reflection and contemplation of the landscape.
