Located in the heart of the Caminhos do Romântico neighbourhood, in the city of Oporto, the Casa Gólgota has been shrewdly recuperated from its ruins. The conventional architectural language and techniques, which belong to its history, were used, adding a block in timber and concrete, elements practically invisible to the eyes of anyone who pass by. The project, created by the Floret Arquitectura studio, presents, according to its documentation, "unique characteristics, mixing bourgeois houses with popular housing, interspersing the gardens full of camellias and other exotic species, with vegetable gardens and courtyards, but also several examples of industrial archaeology”. In the distance, the Douro River watches over it all.
