Extra Information
In the 20th century, on the occasion of course meetings and other academic events, it was the habit to place along the garden's corners tombstones with verses, particularly in the corner of the garden called "sala dos cursos" (course room).
Busts of emblematic poets of Portuguese culture, such as António Nobre and Eça de Queirós, perpetuate their connection to the city of Coimbra.
