Entrance to the Estação de Caminhos de Ferro do Rossio (Rossio Railway Station), Lisbon, Portugal


There is a bare niche between the two horseshoe entrances. On 3 May 2016, a 126-year-old statue of Sebastian of Portugal that stood there was accidentally destroyed by a person who knocked it over by climbing up for a photograph. The person was arrested.
