Estatua Do Marques de Pombal

Fun statue

Hairdo that of wigs worn in the past? More like dreadlocks but what fun. Lovely marble slabs? A statue for modern times and interpret the way you want to.

Interesting statue

Worth walking through town to see - on the waterfront near to the town centre - interesting to look at and right by the promenade so worth a wander

Statue and promenade

Nice stroll along the local promenade. Great rustic looking buildings, and an interesting statue. Cracking views of the estuary and also of Spain.

Very different sculpture

Very unusual statue, not too sure what it represented, but very interesting. Lovely to stroll along the promenade.
