During the Siege of Porto this building, today a renowned hotel in the city, was occupied by the Liberal army, serving as a hospital, to support the wounded during the civil war between 1832 and 1834. General Bernardo Sá Nogueira (later Marquis of Sá da Bandeira) was a patient here, during the conflict, having his right arm amputated in the aftermath of the battle of Alto da Bandeira, in Gaia.
