Vila Flôr Palace


Constructed in the middle of the 17th century at the order of the Carvalho family, the palace is decorated with granite statues of the first kings of Portugal and surrounded by a beautiful garden on three terraces, embelished with a baroque fountain.
Queen Maria II stayed here during her visit to Guimarães in 1852, and two years later it was the stage for the 1st Industrial and Trade Exhibition.
