The history of Casa São Roque (formerly Casa Ramos Pinto) dates back to 1759, when, as part of Quinta da Lameira, it functioned as a mansion and hunting lodge, as was typical of Porto’s bourgeoisie and noble families.
In the 19th century, it belonged to the family of Maria Virginia de Castro, who in 1888 married António Ramos Pinto, one of the best-known producers and exporters of Port wine. Shortly afterwards, between 1900 and 1911, he commissioned architect José Marques da Silva to remodel and expand the house, while Jacinto de Matos designed the garden.
