Casa das Pedras, Monument of public interest in Parede, Portugal.
Casa das Pedras stands on a 23-meter elevation above sea level, next to Marginal Avenue and Avencas Beach in the Parede district of Cascais.
Manuel de Azevedo Gomes, a Portuguese navy commander, commissioned architect Nicola Bigaglia to design Casa das Pedras, which was built between 1903 and 1904.
This four-story residence represents the summer architecture of late Romanticism in Cascais municipality, earning its Monument of Public Interest status in 2016.
