Behind the simple facade on Rua das Portas de Santo Antão lies one of the city's most magnificent palaces – a true architectural gem. What now serves as a cultural center and restaurant was originally built in the 17th century as the city palace of the Alverca family. The magnificent rooms, with their Moorish and neo-Baroque elements, speak of bygone splendors. Access to the courtyard in front of the restaurant is free, but in return, quiet and consideration for the "actual" guests are expected. ;-)

The National Palace of Queluz is enchanting for its grandeur and the exuberance of its architectural details. Closely linked to the experiences of three generations of the Portuguese Royal Family, and the scene of intense emotions, the palace reflects the evolution of tastes and styles of the time, including Baroque, Rococo and Neoclassicism. Surrounding it, scenic gardens invite you to “stroll” back to the time when the court organised sumptuous parties there and preserve memories of gondola rides on the canal, theatre, hunting, musical and literary evenings, masked balls, games and open-air performances. A dreamlike setting, enlivened by waterfalls and delicate water features.
