Cais do Sodr\u00e9 owes its name to the noble Sodr\u00e9 family, who owned properties in the area in the 15th century. During World War II, it became a strategic point frequented by spies and smugglers, thanks to Lisbon’s neutrality. In 2011, Rua Cor-de-Rosa was created as part of an urban revitalization project, transforming the former run-down bar area into a modern and attractive leisure space with a strong visual identity. <\/p>\n\n

In the 17th century, Cais do Sodr\u00e9 was known as the “Port of Vessels”, where ships left for the Portuguese colonies. During the 19th century, Cais do Sodr\u00e9 became an area of bars and entertainment venues, attracting sailors and adventurers from all over the world. <\/p>\n\n
