Palacete Mayer, Embassy residence in Santo António, Portugal
The Palacete Mayer exhibits a rectangular layout with three floors separated by friezes and decorated with women heads and lion masks over windows.
Built in 1899 following designs by Italian architect Nicola Bigaglia, this palace received the Valmor Prize for architectural excellence in 1902.
The building's gardens transformed into Parque Mayer, a major entertainment district with four theaters that shaped Lisbon's performing arts scene.
The Spanish Embassy administration operates from this location since 1930, with multiple renovations adapting the interior for diplomatic functions.
The structure features six distinct sections divided by pilasters, with first-floor bay windows supported by balustrades displaying Spanish royal arms.
