Monumento ao Calceteiro
If you walked around Lisbon already, you’ve probably seen these special statues; not for kings or VIP but for the artisans that create amazing pieces of cobblestones art - called “calceteiros”, coming from “Calçada portuguesa” (Portuguese cobblestones.
You can find the statue at Restauradores square (close to Rossio square and train station).
Represents the artisans and on the pavement the symbol of the city of Lisbon - the boat with 2 crows - associated with the Legend of St Vincent, patron saint of the city of Lisbon.
Enjoy!
