Rossio Square is located in Lisbon, and it's the popular name of the Pedro IV Square. It has been one of its main squares since the Middle Ages, and the setting for popular celebrations as well as revolts, bullfights and executions. In 1755 there was an earthquake in Lisbon, and most buildings around the Square needed reconstruction.
