Aqueduto das Aguas Livres
Lisbon, Portugal
4.4 / 33
The aqueduct was erected in the first half of the 17th century and survived during the earthquake of 1755. It is still included in the city’s existing water supply system. The arches of the aqueduct reach a height of 60 meters. Until the middle of the XIX century it was possible to walk on it, however, it was decided to close the passage due to frequent suicides. Nowadays, an aqueduct can be a tour in an organized group.

Definitely deserves a visit! An impressive structure with a very interesting story! The views from the city already also interesting. |

Historically significant and unique. It looks like they are in the process of adding information speakers. For now you have to do your own research. |
