Quinta da Macieirinha Romantic Museum

The Quinta da Maserinha Romantic Museum in Porto is located in a stunning palace where Charles Albert of Sardinia found refuge after abdicating when he was defeated by the Austrian imperial army, and he spent the last year of his life here until his death in 1849 from tuberculosis. Notable for aristocratic homes from the 19th century, its interior design is of particular charm and its rooms are beautifully decorated with exquisite paintings and antiques.
