Edifício do Café Martinho da Arcada

After the earthquake, the Marquês de Pombal promoted the opening of taverns, being the Martinho da Arcada the oldest (1782). Located in one of the arcades of the Comércio Square, the interior of the café gives a close image to what might have been the outline of the establishments of that period. Nowadays, there are poetry and musical events in the café that was Fernando Pessoa’s favourite.
