Near the Parish of São Martinho, in the old sintrense village, stands the ’Palace of ribafria’ (also known as Casa Pombal) built in 1534 by Gaspar Gonçalves, to whom in 1541 was granted the title of Lord of Ribafria.

This property remained in the possession of that family until 1727, the year it was acquired by the archpriest of the Holy Patriarchal Church, Paulo de Carvalho de Ataíde and who later bequeathed it to his nephew Sebastião Jose de Carvalho e Mello, Count of Oeiras and Marques de Pombal.

Inspired by the Renaissance style still marked by medieval tradition, this property was transformed by successive restorations, the result of different benefit campaigns.

Deep in the flanks of the mountains and the three bodies of buildings arranged in U, this property is distributed by a paradisiacal garden, overflowing with light overlooking the entire sintra mountain range and historical monuments such as pena palace and moorish castle and a panoramic view of the beaches and the sea.

From the entrance, an elegant lobby sets the tone of the house. Domed by warheads supported by a set of arches and center lines that are born from each angle is also ornamented by eardrums representing traditional medieval motifs and ’modern’ vault closures like this sun-shaped house. However, the most interesting aspect is the separation of the courtyard by two arches of perfect curves supported by very Italianized-style capitals with their vaults and mascharões.

Its interiors preserve all its richness and history, highlighting itself at the top of the dining room, a balcony, with lambril of Mudejar tiles and cover with ribbed vault, topped by three arcades, which overlap two medallions sporting busts carved in high relief and can be inserted by their plastic materialization, insert in the tradition of Nicolas Chanterene. ’French Nicholas’ to the center impose sums up a small circular fountain with central element in alabaster. The Manueline chapel is integrated into the building and has long been closed.

Two centuries later, following the earthquake of 1755, religious offices were celebrated here, since according to the accounts of the time the church of St. Martin situated opposite had been badly damaged. Since the house suffered damage to the owner at this time, the Marques de Pombal remade the façade.

The ’Palace of Ribafria’ is a historic house that represents the true treasure of the Portuguese Renaissance.

Ideal for a future museum in Sintra.

10-bedroom palace with 516 sqm of gross construction area, garden, and a view over the National Palace, located on a plot of land of 2,238 sqm in the historical center of Sintra village.

The estate is built on the terraces of the Serra and in the shadow of the Castle of the Moors, with a privileged view over the National Palace of Sintra. Within this estate, two villas are constructed, strategically placed at different levels. The upper villa is designed for the Marquês’s personal residence, while the lower villa is intended to accommodate his mother. The villa for the mother was named Casa Italiana because it was designed by a prestigious Italian architect, who created a project for a semi-circular building. Italian workers and artists were employed to paint the frescoes both on the exterior and interior. Around 1840, the estate was sold to an English family. Casa Italiana returned to the possession of the descendants of the Marquês’ mother, who was the daughter of the first Marquês of Pombal from her second marriage to D. Ernestina Wolfange. The Casa Italiana has a coat of arms painted on the ceiling of its entrance portico, with the Arms of the daughter - the Countess of Rio Maior - D. Amália de Carvalho Daun e Lorena de Saldanha Oliveira e Sousa. The coat of arms has an eagle with a key in its mouth, which comes from the Arms of the Daun family and symbolizes the story that the first Count of Daun was captured by a rival and imprisoned in a tower of a castle in Bohemia.

In the early 20th century, Casa Italiana was once again inhabited by the Saldanha family, who donated the upper villa as well as part of the estate to the Patriarchate of Lisbon and sold Casa Italiana to an English family. In December 1987, Casa Italiana was sold again and underwent restoration works for two years, both on the exterior and interior. At present, it is a private residence but with potential to be a boutique hotel or event space. It has a garage with eight parking spaces.

In the 19th century, the town of Sintra was a great inspiration for artists and writers of the Romantic movement, which attracted the nobility and bourgeoisie of the time, resulting in the construction of palaces, manor houses, and chalets. During this period, one of the most prestigious estates, ’Quinta do Saldanha,’ was built, which is part of the history of Sintra. The estate was commissioned in 1830 by the Marquês of Saldanha, maternal grandson of the Marquês of Pombal, the Prime Minister of King D. José.
