Parques De Sintra Chalet E Jardim Da Condessa Dedla Toilette Del Rei

The King’s Toilette was designed for hygiene, the exchange of clothing and for the care of Ferdinand II’s beard. For such purposes, there was a mahogany lavatory, a basin and water jug and in addition to a mirror to facilitate the shaving. The room also provided the king with a desk where he would be able to deal with correspondence in a perfectly private environment that would avoid any interruptions.
