The Cultural Centre of the Triennial has had many lives. Originally built as an aristocratic residence, it shares palatial features with the adjacent Palácio dos Marqueses do Lavradio, the Supreme Military Court. In the 19th century, neoclassical balustrades and statues were added to the upper part of the façade. However, the most significant changes are to be found inside the building, especially the neo-Gothic decoration of the staircase. The 20th century also left its mark on the building, especially when it served as the Italian Delegation and suffered a major fire. It was used as a primary school before being abandoned. The current renovation aims to enhance the building’s heritage value and preserve the collective memory it represents for the community. It will remove incongruous elements and subtly add layers to this palimpsest, highlighting its historical significance and identity.
