Informations supplémentaires

Pedro IV Square, commonly known as Rossio, is a key public square located in the heart of Lisbon, Portugal. The square, with its distinctive wave-patterned cobblestone design, serves as a vibrant hub for social gatherings, cultural events, and daily life in the city. The square is named after Dom Pedro IV, a significant figure in Portuguese and Brazilian history who served as King of Portugal and the first Emperor of Brazil. A statue in his honor stands prominently in the middle of the square, symbolizing his influence and contributions. The statue, unveiled in 1870, depicts Dom Pedro IV holding the Portuguese Constitution that he had sworn to uphold. Rossio has been a central meeting place for Lisboetas (Lisbon residents) since the Middle Ages. The square was renovated in the 19th century, with the addition of the Rossio Train Station and the National Theatre D. Maria II, further enhancing its importance as a center of activity in the city. The square is renowned for its unique paving, featuring small, flat, black and white limestone pieces arranged in a wave pattern, a style known as "calçada portuguesa". This traditional Portuguese style of pavement is a common sight throughout the country, but the pattern in Rossio is particularly notable for its complexity and visual impact. Rossio is part of the Pombaline Lower Town (Baixa Pombalina), a district of Lisbon that was rebuilt in the 18th century following the devastating 1755 Lisbon earthquake. The district and the square are named after the Marquis of Pombal, who led the rebuilding effort and was instrumental in shaping modern Lisbon. Today, Pedro IV Square continues to serve as a central hub for both locals and tourists, offering a window into Lisbon's history and vibrant contemporary life. Its iconic features make it a notable landmark and a significant point of interest in Lisbon.
