Casa dos Crivos, Renaissance building in São João do Souto, Portugal.
The Casa dos Crivos displays a wooden lattice facade painted in white with green box frames extending across three distinct floors.
Built during the 17th century expansion of Braga beyond its medieval walls, initiated by Archbishop D. Diogo de Sousa's urban development plan.
The building reflects the conservative values of Braga's families through its wooden lattice design, which provided privacy while maintaining visual connection with the street.
The building opens Tuesday through Friday from 10:00 to 13:00 and 15:00 to 18:30, with weekend hours from 14:30 to 18:00.
The interior structure contains a wooden staircase connecting three floors with different materials: ceramic tiles on the first level and wooden planks above.
