    The text discusses how landscape architecture can be used to attach open spaces to collective and individual memories by leaving traces on the territory and regenerating collective memory.

    It describes how contemporary landscape architecture design can serve as an element that attaches open spaces to memories, and how projects can regenerate collective memory.

    Elements from the past that are preserved or restored include the Poço Novo, Chafariz Grande, and Fontinha wells, as well as the lavadouro municipal (public washing place).

    Rossio do Poo Novo lost its main


    function.
    Its no longer necessary:
    To supply the population with the
    well water;
    To wash clothes on the public
    washing place;
    To give water to the animals.
    This place, today, is just part of the
    collective memory of this people.
