A bit of history

Lisbon, one of Europe's oldest cities, was a global power during the 15th-16th century Age of Discoveries. The 1755 earthquake destroyed much of the city, leading to its reconstruction in the Pombaline style. IncrediblePortugal was founded by local historians to share this layered history.
