Casa da Roda

Celorico de Basto
Description

A casa da Roda was the place where were collected rejected children, to be delivered to other women, or charity organization.  This system has been in operation until the XIX century, as attested in several inventories, written this century. The generic designation of “Casa da Roda” derived from the swiveling mechanism used to ensure the anonymity of the person who delivered the child. This building and the neighborhood are exemplary of the traditional architecture.
