  • Cover photo description:
  • The Rossio Railway Station is a railway station in Lisbon located in the Rossio square. The station was formerly known as Estacao Central - Central Station - and that designation still appears in its facade. The station was commissioned by the Portuguese Royal Railway Company and was designed between 1886 and 1887 by Portuguese architect Jose Luis Monteiro. It was built in one of the most important squares of Lisbon, the Rossio, and connected the city to the region of Sintra. The Neo-Manueline façade dominates the northwest side of the square and is a Romantic recreation of the exuberant Manueline style, typical of early 16th century Portugal. Its most interesting features are the two intertwined horseshoe portals at the entrance, the clock in a small turret and the abundant sculptural decoration. Lisbon, Portugal.
