While wandering around Lisbon, besides the rustic buildings embedded in history and its verdant gardens, you might have noticed its various bookstores. The time has made them part of the city\u2019s streets, unmissable by their stories and books, of course. In this article, we will tell you about the most emblematic bookstores in Lisbon that are located near the Hotel Portuense.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/h4>\n

Bertrand Bookstore – Chiado<\/h4>\n

Believe it or not, this is the oldest bookstore in the world. Founded in 1732 by Pedro Faure, it was named this way in honor of his partners, the Bertrand brothers. This bookshop, initially located in Rua do Loreto, moved after the 1755 earthquake to Rua Garrett 73-75 (1773). Bertrand is nationally known for being the biggest bookstore chain in Portugal and for having been the stage of multiple debates of the 1870\u2019s writers, such as Antero de Quental and E\u00e7a de Queir\u00f3s.<\/p>\n

Ferin Bookstore<\/h4>\n

Founded in 1840, this is the second oldest bookstore in Lisbon. It belonged to the Ferin family, who moved to Portugal to escape the First French Empire. Before it was a bookshop, this was a place for Jean Baptiste\u2019s daughters (the owner of the store) to read, having also been a binding shop that served the Portuguese Royal Family directly. The Ferin bookstore was often frequented by famous writers, such as E\u00e7a de Queir\u00f3s. Located in Rua Nova do Almada 72, the Ferin bookstore is remembered as the place of choice for timeless writers, such as E\u00e7a de Queir\u00f3s.<\/p>\n

\u00a0S\u00e1 Costa Bookstore<\/h4>\n

This bookstore was founded in 1913, by the editor and bookseller Augusto S\u00e1 da Costa. He dedicated himself to publish various didactic books aiming to improve what afterward would be known as the \u201cSchoolbook\u201d. He also published a set of multiples Portuguese classics, from Ant\u00f3nio Verney and Almeida Garrett\u2019s texts to S\u00e1 de Miranda\u2019s ones, which he named \u201cThe S\u00e1 da Costa Classics Collection\u201d. Its oldest book is dated from 1498 and he also sold a book printed by Guttenberg. In 1943, the S\u00e1 Costa bookstore moved to Rua Garrett 100, where it stays until this day, near de B\u00e9nard cafe. Its Art Deco decoration, by Tom\u00e1s Cola\u00e7o, is an inspiration and a must-see.<\/p>\n

Thus, we acknowledge that Lisbon\u2019s history is much more than streets, buildings, and museums. <\/strong><\/p>\n

It also is the people, the places, and the culture they disclosed. Therefore, we ask: why not taking the day to visit all these Lisbon\u2019s milestones? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Know more about the culture of the city of seven hills and enjoy reading the Portuguese greatest classics!<\/strong><\/p>\n
