Omschrijving
The Palacio da Graciosa, situated on a beautiful 43-hectare estate, is a living testimony to Portugal's history and culture.
An imposing 18th century building, it stands out as a remarkable example of Baroque civil architecture and is an architectural masterpiece in the Anadia region.
With a rectangular floor plan that houses the main building and the private chapel, this palace is a work of great Portuguese historical and architectural importance. The main facade, organised into three vertical panels, is marked by imposing Tuscan pilasters and elaborate decorative details. The highlight of the facade is the central body, which houses a majestic staircase. This staircase, adorned with elaborate landings and balustrades, leads to a double entrance that is the focal point of the building. The chapel, consisting of a single nave and lowered chancel, connected to the main body by an arch, has a simple facade with architectural elements that reflect its sacred function. It has eighteenth-century tiles from the Patio do Giraldes palace.
The Neo-Romanesque body added in 1896, incorporating elements from demolitions in Coimbra as well as Romanesque capitals from the church of Sao Cristovao reflects not only a later period in the history of construction, but also a fusion of architectural styles, incorporating Romanesque and 17th-century elements into a Neo-Romanesque aesthetic.
In addition to the palace, the property is made up of various support buildings such as stables, a covered riding arena, caretakers' houses, an events hall, support dwellings and agricultural warehouses.
In another part of the property, we find an old cowshed and caretakers' houses.
The agricultural land is of excellent quality. Possibility of acquiring more adjoining land.
50 km from Porto and 220 km from Lisbon.
