Mourisca Fountain
This tiled 1922 fountain on Volta do Duche makes a short public-art stop on the walk between Sintra station and the old town.
Why go
José da Fonseca’s Neo-Moorish design adds an early twentieth-century layer to a familiar walking route. Pause to see the arch, tiles and municipal coat of arms as you pass along Volta do Duche. This is a brief street-side stop, best combined with nearby sights rather than planned as a separate outing.
What to look for
Neo-Moorish tiles and arches on a short station-to-centre walk.
Useful to know
Allow about ten minutes on Volta do Duche. Daylight helps with the decorative details; no gate hours are published.
