Situated on Rua Doutor Alfredo Magalhães, this property is located in the city of Aveiro, an integral part of its urban fabric. The street where it is situated reflects a more local atmosphere, distinct from the fervor observed along the city's central canals. Its position allows visitors a perspective of Aveiro that extends beyond the most familiar postcards, in an area that invites a more tranquil walk and the discovery of details in the local urban landscape.
The property in question has its historical roots firmly established, with its initial construction dating back to the year 1705. This date gives it particular significance in Aveiro's built environment, positioning it as an element of longevity in the region's architecture. According to historical records, there is a possibility that a previous structure already existed on the same site, suggesting a continuity of occupation and relevance of that spot over the centuries. Its existence attests to the evolution of the municipality and how the space has been shaped by human action over time.
Over the years, this property has not remained unchanged. In the year 1855, it underwent major repair works. These interventions are a testament to the needs for maintenance and adaptation of buildings to the demands of each era, but also to their structural challenges. Such works contributed to its preservation and to the way it presents itself today, revealing a fusion of elements from its original design with the alterations introduced over time. Observing these traces allows one to understand a little of its resilience and the history it carries with it.
