Palácio de Estói

Estoi Palace (Palácio de Estoi), also known as Casa de Estói, Quinta de Estói, and Quinta do Carvalhal, and originally as Jardim de Estoy, is a historic building located near the town of Estói, in the municipality of Faro, in the Algarve region of Portugal. Part of the Estoi Palace complex is occupied by a hotel. It is considered one of the Algarve's main monuments due to its architectural and decorative richness, combining elements of Baroque, Rococo, Neoclassical, and Romantic styles. It has been classified as a Property of Public Interest. The Estoi Palace complex is large in size and consists of two main components: an old manor house and the gardens. The manor house consists of several sections, roughly forming a U-shaped structure, with the Jardim do Carrascal at the center. It is primarily in the Italian Baroque style, with various elements in other styles. This variety of styles and forms does not always result in a harmonious combination, creating inconsistencies between the elements and resulting in arrangements that could almost be considered kitsch. Inside, there are several richly ornamented and furnished rooms, decorated in the French style of the 18th century. One of the most prominent areas of the palace is the chapel, which features a bell tower and a Louis XV-style interior, with a tiled ceiling and painted roof. The extensive gardens are organized
