History
Belonging to a wealthy rural family, the Quinta has been the scene of multiple uses throughout its existence for more than a century.
In addition to housing, it served as a self-supporting economic center. The cultivation of corn, its transformation into flour and then into bread, in wood-fired ovens; milk production; their skimming and transformation into cheese and butter; the production of grapes and their transformation into wine; the capture of rainwater and its storage in cisterns; the production of fruits, namely figs and their use, sometimes fresh, sometimes dried, sometimes in homemade sweets; poultry and egg production; the production of pigs, their slaughter and storage of meat in clay containers (salting machines) and the production of an immense variety of vegetables and flowers, were the result of hard work where the time was between sunrise and sunset - Sun.
In addition to the practice of a self-sustaining economy, the Quinta's three buildings served as a commercial establishment (where some of Lisbon's newspapers were posted for information to the local population, namely during the 1914 war); as a primary school; milk skimming station and even as a military barracks.
Today, adapted to the practice of rural tourism-country house, keeps the signs of its history alive.
