This building in Rua Henrique Calado is one of the few constructions which survived the 1755 earthquake. It has been a hostelry for centuries, giving shelter to travellers. From here it is easy to visit the Clock Tower in what was once the county jail in Rua Bernardino de Sousa. During the 19th century the tower holding the bell was adorned with an iron crown. A short walk away is the Bell Tower which is topped with an eight-bell carillon. Constructed in 1869, the tower is part of the parish church. The access to the top is by a 28 metre stairway.
