Palace of the Dukes of Palmela, 18th-century palace in Santo António, Lisbon, Portugal.
The rectangular windows of this neoclassical palace feature wrought iron balconies, while two large sculptures flank the main entrance door.
Manuel Caetano de Sousa designed this residence in 1792 for the Dukes of Palmela, who maintained ownership until the Portuguese government acquired it in 1977.
The palace displays the coat of arms of the Dukes of Palmela above its entrance, representing the noble lineage of this Portuguese aristocratic family.
The building now functions as the headquarters of the Portuguese Attorney General's Office, located near the center of Lisbon's administrative district.
A fire in 1981 destroyed the palace's chapel, leading to a renovation project that preserved the remaining architectural elements of the structure.
