Waar gaat het over?

Perched on a rocky outcrop above the town of Sintra and commanding spectacular views of the Estoril coast, Pena is undoubtedly one of Europe's most romantic palaces. Built on the orders of D. Fernando II, and heavily influenced by the castles of King Ludwig II of Bavaria, Pena Palace has been the focus of a major restoration program undertaken by IPPAR (Instituto Portugues do Patrimonio Arquitectonico) and the Portuguese Ministry of Culture. The title celebrates a new phase in the history of this incredible building, which has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1983. Paulo Pereira's text brings to life the fascinating history of the palace, which became the Portuguese royal family's private retreat in the mid-1800s until the establishment of the Republic in 1911. Also included are stories of the key figures associated with the palace's construction, the role of the building and its past occupants. In addition, the author takes the reader on a guided tour of the principal rooms and surrounding grounds, which highlights key aspects of the architecture and decoration.
