About: Biester Palace
Biester Palace is an 18th-century palace located in the historic center of Sintra, Portugal, and is considered one of the most important examples of Romantic architecture in the country. It was built in 1782 by the Portuguese nobleman José Luís de Moura.
The palace was built in the neoclassical style with a symmetrical plan and surrounded by a walled garden. Its most striking features include the two-story façade with a pediment, the crenellated towers and the various chimneys, which are adorned with Rococo-style sculptures. The interior of the palace is also decorated in the neoclassical style and features several rooms, including a grand staircase, an impressive library and a formal dining room.
The palace was classified as a National Monument in 1910, and it is now open to the public.
