Description

Portugal dos Pequenitos is a small- scale park located on the left bank of the Mondego River in Coimbra, Portugal, which was founded by Fernando Bissaya Barreto on June 8, 1940.
Unique in its kind, began as a display of Portugal’s heritage, in terms of the different architectural styles, as well as the various types of construction, carried out according to the geomorphological factors of each region, and a whole range of traditional crafts.
In the following years, Portugal dos Pequenitos continued to grow, supported by Bissaya Barreto’s thoughts and actions, giving way to new constructions, now representing the ethnographic and monumentalaspectsof today’s Portuguese-speaking African countries, as well as Brazil, Macau, India and Timor, interactive exhibitions that you can visit in the area now known as “Portugal and the World”.
The construction project for Portugal dos Pequenitos was carried out by one of the greatest names in modern Portuguese architecture, Cassiano Branco, supported by the mastery of Manuel de Jesus Cardoso, who directed the works in the Park. Here you’ll discover 1.3 hectares of unique exploration experiences, for kids and adults, where it’s up to the visitor to decide how long they want to visit, which can take up a whole day!
