Palácio de Reriz, 18th-century palace in São Pedro do Sul, Portugal

The palace features a U-shaped plan with a colonnade displaying Doric capitals and elongated facades containing numerous symmetrical window openings.

The palace was constructed in the early 1700s by D. Diogo Francisco de Almeida e Vasconcelos, founder of the Royal Company of Wines of Alto Douro.

The central portal exhibits the Almeida coat of arms, while the interior rooms display wooden coffered ceilings and balcony windows with interrupted pediments.

The exterior walls measure 1.20 meters in thickness, and the interior walls are 90 centimeters wide, providing substantial structural integrity.

Queen D. Amélia's frequent visits in the 1890s led to the owner receiving the title of Marquis and the building being called Paço Real.
