DURING THE SECOND HALF OF THE XVIII CENTURY, A MANSION
WAS BUILT WITHIN ST. JORGES CASTLE WALLS ON THE SITE OF
THE FORMER ALCACOVA PALACE KITCHENS. THAT IS WHY IT IS
STILL KNOWN AS THE PALACETE DAS COZINHAS /KITCHEN
MANSION/. ALONG WITH TWO FLOORS AND A MANSARD, AN INNER
COURTYARD AND GARDENS, THE PALACETE DAS COZINHAS
POSSESSES SOME MEDIEVAL REMAINS SUCH AS THE CISTERN -
WHICH ARE THOUGHT TO HAVE FORMED PART OF THE ORIGINAL
PALACES OUTBUILDINGS. ITS 14 ROOMS TRANSMIT MEMORIES THAT
GO THROUGH 8 CENTURIES OF HISTORY, INVITING THE DISCOVERY
OF ANCIENT TIMES.
PERHAPS BECAUSE IT WAS BUILT IN THE CASTLE AREA, FAR FROM
THE ZONE THAT WAS PREFERRED BY THE NOBILITY AFTER THE
EARTHQUAKE, THE MANSION COMBINED ELEMENTS OF THE
RATIONALIST POMBAL STYLE OF BUILDING - THE SOBER FRAMES
AROUND THE WINDOWS AND THE MAIN GATEWAY - WITH OTHERS
THAT EXPRESSED A GREATER FREEDOM, SUCH AS THE ELABORATE
DESIGN THAT SURMOUNTS THE WALL ATTACHED TO THE GATEWAY IN
THE MAIN FACADE ON WHICH WE CAN READ 1765 - THE PROBABLE
DATE OF ITS CONSTRUCTION.
THE PALACETE DAS COZINHAS REMAINED IN THE HANDS OF
VARIOUS ARISTOCRATIC FAMILIES FOR MANY YEARS, DURING
WHICH IT GRADUALLY SUFFERED THE AVERAGES OF TIME,
REACHING THE MODERN ERA IN A VERY RUN-DOWN STATE. THE
MANSION, WHICH IS CLASSIFIED AS AN HISTORIC BUILDING HAS
NOW BEEN TRANSFORMED INTO A HOTEL UNDER THE NAME SOLAR DO
CASTELO AND HAS BEEN BROUGHT BACK TO LIFE BY A HIGH
QUALITY, CONTEMPORARY DESIGN BY THE ARCHITECT VASCO
MASSAPINA. THANKS TO ITS NEW VOCATION, ONCE AGAIN WE ALL
HAVE ACCESS TO THE HOSPITABLE TILED FIGURE THAT WELCOMES
US AT THE ENTRANCE AND INVITES US TO GET TO KNOW THE
HOUSE, THE AUTHENTICITY OF WHICH IS BASED ON THE HISTORY
AND MEMORIES OF A MYTHICAL SITE THAT WAS THE BIRTHPLACE
OF THE CITY OF LISBON.
THIS PROPERTY WAS BUILT IN 1800
RENOVATED IN 2002
