House of Four Heads

Right in the fishing heart of the ancient town, in the Bairro do Troino, this house is interesting for the Latin inscription engraved on the lintel above the door, with a royal head, and three more heads on another corner, all worked in bas-relief. According to legend, it was from this house that an attempt was made to assassinate the king, D. João II, as he went by in the Corpo de Deus Procession.
