Around Aveiro

Modernist architecture abounds in Portugal. This is particularly true on college campuses, since most were built after the mid 1970s.

Although the population is just 10.6 million, there are 24 schools of architecture!

I’ve included a few photos of buildings at the University of Aviero campus below.

Here’s a view of downtown Aveiro.

Jose gave a me a grand tour of the campus of the University of Aveiro.

It has many modernist buildings….

arranged around a central courtyard.

All with tropical modernist flair.

Our drive to Agueda was also full of sites, because bird nesting is encouraged along the highway here.
