Largo do Conde is situated in the locality of Sobrado, an integral part of the urban area of Gração, in the municipality of Castelo de Paiva. This space plays a central role in the heart of the village, offering visitors an environment that harmonizes the rich local history with the daily pulse of the surrounding area.
At the epicentre of Largo do Conde stands a notable statue in honour of Martinho Pinto Lencastre de Bulhões (1848-1923), recognized as the first Count of Castelo de Paiva. This sculptural work, authored by the sculptor José Leão, lends the square a profound historical and artistic value.
Conceived as a space for conviviality and serenity, Largo do Conde invites moments of pause and contemplation. This garden has undergone significant requalification in recent years, now presenting a more contemporary and welcoming aspect. Its particular atmosphere is enriched by the historic buildings that surround it, whose secular architecture complements the more modern design of the square, creating an urban landscape where the past and present meet.
