Old Art Deco Movie theatre on the Avenida Da Liberade in Lisbon Capital City of Portugal

---

Lisbon is one of the oldest cities in the world, and the oldest in Western Europe. Ruled by a series of Germanic tribes from the 5th century, it was captured by the Moors in the 8th century. In 1147, the Crusaders under Afonso Henriques reconquered the city and since then it has been a major political, economic and cultural centre of Portugal. Unlike most capital cities, Lisbon's status as the capital of Portugal has never been granted or confirmed officially.
