A fishermen Memorial
Located in Vila Nova de Gaia, near the mouth of the D'ouro river, S. Pedro da Afurada is a fishing village practically isolated from the city, thus preserving its character and tradition. A response was given to the exercise, calling for the planning of the church square, which until now was surrounded by construction works. With roughly 4000m2 (four thousand square meters) and a gap of 7m (seven meters), the land in question has a highly advantageous position facing the D'ouro river, and its location, in relation to the town, allowed for a fishermen memorial, a place of meditation and reflection and where residents can make their prayers and pay respects to their dead at sea.
