AB  - The third Duchess of Palmela used her fortune to increase the real estate of the family. In the
1870 decade ordered the project for a palace to be constructed in the property located in
Cascais. With the construction of the palace came the need to build a park that occupied all
the property from the ocean to Monte Estoril. The design and construction of the park obeyed
to the orders of a specialist and the own taste of the aristocrat. Several species of plants,
shrubs and trees were planted in the rugged terrain. Beyond to the “exuberant green” this park
was marked by a watercourse, its water tanks and its dirt roads, all in English style. Despite
being a private park the owners put it at the disposal of the population and all people can
enjoy the space, its shadows, its waters and its superb view by the Atlantic. In addition to
being enjoyed as a space for entertainment and leisure, this park allowed for the coexistence
between people of different statutes, assuming it as a space of sociability. A space of
sociability that has allowed on several occasions to raise funds for social causes through the
organization of festivals, Kermess, and others activities.
Benefiting from a unique landscape, the palace and the park of the dukes of Palmela taking on
an important memory of the Cascais experience between the end of the XIX century and the
beginning of the next century, when this village became the summer resort of the royal family
and, consequently, the Portuguese Royal Court. This important park in the urban planning and
social life of Cascais in XIX century was transformed a public park in the twenty century,
participated in the transformation the small fishing village in a one of the most important
tourist and bathing poles of the Iberian Peninsula.
