It was in the square on the way from Tural Square to Oliveira Square in the old town. I didn't know what it was when I first saw it from a distance, but when I went nearby, I found it was a statue of a soldier with a sword and shield. It seems that Alfonso 1 the first king of Portugal is the world. In front of Marquis Braganza's residence, there was also a magnificent statue of Alfonso 1 in the square, but this statue was different compared to that.
