Monument to the Discoveries | Lisbon - Padrão Dos Descobrimentos | Lisboa

As a LEGO fan this is my tribute to Lisbon, my city, and a very exciting challenge. This is an excellent item to display in an adult collection and for those who like architecture from all over the world.

The model measures are: Height – 60cm; Width – 19,2cm; Length – 41,6cm, that is, an approximate scale of 1:100

The Padrão dos Descobrimentos (Monument to the Discoveries) was designed to commemorate the Age of Discoveries in Portugal. The Monument to the Discoveries is made up of a group of sculptures that represent the prow of a caravel (a small sailing ship constructed by the Portuguese to explore the Atlantic Ocean). Leading the ship is Prince Henry the Navigator and behind him are many other great Portuguese discoverers.
