English Club of Porto
English Club of Porto, Cultural heritage building at Morro da Vitoria, Porto, Portugal.
The English Club of Porto stands as a two-story structure with baroque architecture featuring curved and triangular pediments above numerous windows.
The building passed from local merchants to the Congregation of San Bernardo before becoming the English Club during Portugal's merchant trading period.
The club functioned as a central meeting point for English-speaking residents and visitors, fostering British-Portuguese connections in Porto's society.
Located at Rua das Virtudes 11 in Cedofeita, the structure maintains its original architectural elements and serves as a charitable organization.
During Porto's Liberal Wars, the building's garden, constructed atop Fernandine Walls, contained cannon batteries overlooking the Douro River.
