Casa da Moura was built from an existing one using all the front parts of the building on the ground floor.

Its construction dates back from 1892 - it belongs to a local wealthy family. For many years it was occupied by the members of the said family. In the 1950's and 1970's it was the old headquarters of the Portuguese Legion

The beaches around Lagos are some of the most beautiful of the Algarve, like Praia de Dona Ana, which can be reached after a 25 minutes walk from the center of the town, Praia do Camilo, a bit further on, and Meia Praia, whose sands stretch for 4 km (2.5 miles) east of Lagos. However, it is the promontory named Ponta da Piedade and sheltering the bay of Lagos which is most admired by visitors, with its caves, rocks and wonderfully transparent waters. North of Lagos, Barragem de Bravura is a water reservoir offering fine views.

Geographical position: facing the Moorish ramparts to the north and to the south Cardeal Neto Street, it is connected to the ancient Largo das Freiras (the nuns’ Square) which is part of the Nossa Senhora da Gloria Convent (or the nuns’ convent), the historic heritage of the town of Lagos, which is very much published in tourist maps and is therefore part of the walking route of many tourists.
