Palmela Palace, Noble residence in Cascais, Portugal.

The angular stone facades of Palmela Palace display rectangular windows, varied roof slopes, and Victorian architectural elements throughout its exterior design.

Built in 1873 on the site of a former 16th-century fortress, the palace was designed by English architect Thomas Henry Wyatt for the Dukes of Palmela.

The palace stands as an example of 19th-century Portuguese aristocratic life, featuring neo-Gothic elements and an entrance portal with the Palmela family coat of arms.

Located at Alameda Duquesa de Palmela in Cascais, the palace requires visitors to consider alternative transportation options due to limited parking availability.

The western facade includes two faceted structures added in the 1880s by architect José António Gaspar to accommodate a chapel space.
