Let the strings of a Coimbra guitar lead you to a place where love defies time.

Stories of Forbidden Love

Coimbra is the city of eternal love. At its heart lies Quinta das Lágrimas, home to Portugal’s most tragic and passionate romance — the forbidden love of Pedro and Inês.

Inês was assassinated by royal order, and legend says her blood still stains the Fonte das Lágrimas, where she cried her final tears. But love, as the story goes, never dies — Pedro crowned her queen after death and ensured they would be buried side by side, forever.

This is not just a love story. It’s a promise that even in silence, love remains.
