The Mayors of Porto (1822-2013)

Following a previous Project, it was intended with this new project to review and update the information on the biographies of the Mayors of Porto, from the first one directly elected by the population to the current Mayor.

With this purpose, we reviewed new sources and corrected some gaps and inaccuracies detected in the original project, and carried out an in-depth study of the Mayors that exercised for a longer period such functions or whose action marked more deeply the city.
