In the century. XVIII, a house it was built in the old Campo de Sant'Ana by a Frenchman, Carlos Rulam. It was intended for the manufacture and sale of silks.
It is commonly said that the soul of any business is its location. Thus, Ana Bragança tried to understand why this was the chosen place for the construction of the magnificent palatial house.
At the same time, works of great magnitude (testimonies of power and clairvoyance) were erected in this same Field by the clergy from Braga. Consequently, the best artisans and merchants sought to settle in its vicinity, thus providing luxury and joy to the Archbishop's Court – which is probably why the Rolão family settled in this area of Braga.
Thus, the jeweler sought to enhance not only Casa Rolão but, also, the urban space that integrates this building of high artistic importance for the city.
