About

The Belém Palace, officially the National Palace of Belém, is the current official residence of the president of Portugal, the head of state of Portugal. Located in the Belém freguesia of Lisbon, the palace's main façade faces the Afonso de Albuquerque Square, facing the Tagus River. A former residence of the Portuguese royal family, the Belém Palace complex is made up of various buildings, wings, courtyards, and gardens, built variously from the 18th to 21st centuries.
