The Estado Novo, the political regime designed by António Salazar and officially accepted in 1933, presented itself as a regime that sought to create something new, something that would reflect the national style but also mirror a new national resurgence. It was with this objective in mind that António Salazar promoted a programme of public works, the reconstruction of national monuments, and drove the first wave of modernism in Portugal. On this tour, we will learn about public and private projects and urban plans.
