FADO HOUSES IN LISBON - Marina Parque das Nações

FADO HOUSES IN LISBON
Fado, Lisbon's urban song, emerges in the nineteenth century, in the city's historic
neighborhoods and popular contexts for socializing. It was sung spontaneously, in
open or closed spaces, especially by the marginal everyday life character.
The importance of Fado from its beginnings to the present time has been
confirmed by its proclamation as Intangible Culture Heritage of Humanity in
November 2011 by UNESCO.
CAFÉ LUSO
The “Café Luso” established in Lisbon in 1927 at nr.31 of Avenida da Liberdade and later in 1939 moved to the Palace
Brito Freire in the Bairro Alto borough. This Palace built in the late 17th Century for an aristocratic family, survived the
catastrophic earthquake of 1755 and has remained almost untouched up to today.
