Located right in front of the Church of Santo António in Estoril and in operation since 1646 but the Fort of S. Roque was eventually demolished in 1889 for the construction of the train line.

For the same location, Carlos Francisco Ribeiro Ferreira commissioned a project from Raúl Lino, in 1909, who designed the house here that adopted the name of the old fort: Casal de S. Roque.

History

In 1642 D. João IV developed his defense plan for the coast of Cascais, with 16 military structures being built here.

To defend Estoril, three forts were built - Forte de S. Roque, Forte de Santo António do Estoril and Forte Santo António d’Assubida.
