Not a lot, architecture-wise, survived the devastating Lisbon earthquake of 1775, so every relic that predates the disaster feels especially valuable, This is the case of the "Chafariz do Carmo", one of the numerous fresh water public fountains (used mostly for drinking) that existed in Lisbon. The fountain itself is beautifully designed with four dolphins adorning its inner part. The "Chafariz do Carmo" should be enjoyed as a part of a broader sightseeing tour of the immediate area, with the relaxing and leafy square Largo do Carmo in the middle of which the fountain is located, the Convento do Carmo, an imposing building that partially survived the 1775 earthquake, also housing Carmo Archaeological Museum, the Elevador de Santa Justa, right around the corner, via the small passageway of Travessa Dom Pedro de Menezes, the best way to beat the crowds (of its downtown entrance), the headquarters of the National Guard (GNR General Command), an iconic landmark in Portugal's Carnation Revolution, where on April 25, 1974 the last Portugal's dictator Caetano officially ceded power to the rebels, and a National Guard Museum (Museu da Guarda Nacional Republicana) located in the same building, on the left of the convent (facing it).

This is an interesting fountain structure designed by Angelo Belasco in 1771. The fountain adds to the atmosphere of Largo Carmo square and is worth having a quick look-see when passing by the square or before/after visiting Igreja do Carmo.

Interesting spot to check out.

(Translated by Google) The Chafariz do Carmo is a drinking fountain in the center of the Portuguese capital Lisbon. It was built in 1771 in the middle of Largo do Carmo. It is fed with water from Aqueduto das Águas Livres, with which it is connected by the Galeria do Loreto.

This is the square where the Carnation Revolution began. The fountain no longer works but this is a piece of history that was huge for the country on 25 April 1974.

Most beautiful square in Lisbon. Great at all times. On Sundays there is a little market there, at night outside cafes are great, and on other days it’s just a beautiful place to explore. It has a really nice feel. Fully recommended! Also, the kiosk and the sculpture in the middle really help with the vibe.

A fountain built in 1771 to distribute water from the Águas Livres Aqueduct. It was not destroyed in the great Lisbon earthquake of 1775. It adds a nice atmosphere to the square.

The fountain - like its surroundings - is one of the worthy adornments of the inner city.

This historical square is where the handover of the revolution happened. There are cafes and street musicians to serenade you. Nearby is the entrance to the elevator and an old church.
