| Description |
The Marquess of Pombal Square (Praça do Marquês de Pombal) is an important roundabout in the city of Lisbon. The square is dominated by a thirty-six meter monument dedicated to the Marquis. Built between 1917 and 1934, it was the collaborative effort among architects Adães Bermudes and António Couto and sculptors Francisco Santos, Simões de Almeida and Leopoldo de Almeida Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo, 1st Marquess of Pombal, 1st Count of Oeiras, ruled Portugal from 1750 to 1777. A bronze statue of the Marquess is on the top, with a lion - symbol of power - by his side. The Marquess is shown looking towards the Baixa Pombalina, the area of Lisbon that was rebuilt under his direction after the disastrous 1755 Lisbon earthquake. |
