Maria da Mouraria

Housed in the Casa da Severa - the building where 19th-century fado diva Maria da Severa is said to have lived out her last years, and now redone in sleek contemporary style - this relatively new venue is an offshoot of the Museu do Fado. Well-known fadista Hélder Moutinho manages the place and regularly performs; other musicians and singers are of equally high quality.
