Solar de Água de Peixes
This beautiful manor house has a central courtyard involved by galleries. It stands out in the access to the courtyard through an ogival chamfered arch in stone, the Duke de Cadaval Coat of Arms in glazed tiles and a sundial. The gate is in stonework, with straight lintel, framed by a lancet arch supported by corbels and crowned on the centre with Duke de Cadaval Coat of Arms. On its decorative elements it displays the Mudejar influence in design and technique conjugating with the Manueline. Decorating the building there are twin brick windows filled with decorative elements.
