Quinta do Relogio dates back to the 19th century and was built in 1860 under the direction of Architect Cinatti from Siena. It was the summer residence of His Royal Highness, King Fernando II. At the moment, the property maintains its connection to the Portuguese nobility and the current owners are descendants of His Royal Highness the King D. Joao I and D. Filipa de Lancastre, Queen of Portugal.
From the gardens of the Quinta, the Clock Tower, which gave the property its name, stands out.
At Quinta do Relogio, both the treatment of exteriors and the distribution, layout and ornamentation of the buildings present a neoclassical language and atmosphere, surrounded by an immense and dense vegetation, from which several species of trees stand out due to their configuration and antiquity, such as the Araucaria, the plane trees and the dracaenas.
The main building has two floors with palatial proportions and unique elements such as the symmetry of the plants, the sequence of spaces formed by a porch, entrance hall and staircase lit by a skylight. Three rooms with sea views and direct access to the garden. The treatment of the exterior spaces presents different levels of land arranged around a patio where the garages, stables and service quarters are located.
The property is located on the first coastline, facing south, over the Tagus River and the Atlantic Ocean.
Paco de Arcos or Paco d'Arcos is a parish of Oeiras and Sao Juliao da Barra, Paco de Arcos and Caxias, in the municipality of Oeiras. On the Lisbon Coast, next to the most Atlantic beaches of the Tagus Estuary, the pleasant riverside atmosphere of the picturesque streets of the town made them especially attractive for restaurants, hotels and commerce. Created on the 16th of January 2013. Resulting from the extinction of the parish with the same name, the village of Paco de Arcos is nicknamed by its inhabitants as 'the most charming village in Portugal'.
The toponymy comes from Palacio dos Arcos, the most important building in the town, which the people called 'Paco' because King Manuel I, the Venturoso, and his daughter D. Maria would have stayed for several times in this palace, to participate in hunts at the quinta do morgadio and to watch the caravels leave for India.
