Quinta do Relógio dates back to the 19th century and was completed in 1860, under the direction of the architect Cinatti of Siena, and was the summer residence of His Royal Highness D. Ferdinand II of Portugal (son of Prince D. Ferdinand of Saxe-Coburg- Gotha and second husband of Queen Dona Maria II of Portugal).

Overlooking the Tagus River and the Atlantic Ocean, the Quinta has approximately 150 meters of seafront, located at a distance of approximately 30/40 meters from the Ocean (first line of sea with full view) and is currently composed of a Palace, a Staff House, 4 Garages, a Stable for 6 horses and a Clock Tower, with a total of around 40 rooms.
The entire property is walled, is currently self-sufficient in water and has built an aqueduct for rainwater that passes under Estrada Marginal (today called Rua Costa Pinto) and goes to the sea.

The Clock Tower stands out in its gardens, which gave the property its name.

The property maintains its connection to the Portuguese nobility with the current owners being descendants of His Royal Highness the King D. João I and D. Filipa de Lancastre, Queen of Portugal and is classified as heritage protected by the environmental safeguard plan and built heritage of the Municipality of Oeiras.

The main building is spread over 2 floors where the porch, entrance hall and staircase are distributed around the central space, lit by a skylight.
The property is classified by the Oeiras City Council as a Property with Municipal Value.
