The urban development of the banks of the Tagus River was subject to intensive development at the beginning of the 16th century, when King Manuel I built a new royal residence (the Ribeira Palace) on the river bank. The area was developed thanks to the construction of the port, shipbuilding facilities and other administrative buildings regulating trade between Portugal and other parts of the world at that time. During the reign of the King Dom Jose I, the great earthquake of 1755, followed by the tsunami and fire, destroyed most of Lisbon, including the Ribeira Palace and other buildings on the river. After the earthquake, the square was completely rebuilt. A large rectangular square in the shape of the letter "U" was designed, open towards the Tagus.
The square was called "Praça do Comércio" (Trade Square) to indicate its new function in the Lisbon economy. The central point of the square is the equestrian statue of King José I. In the direction of Augusta street, which connects the square with another traditional Lisbon Rossio square, a triumphal arch was built in 1875, called Arco da Rua Augusta.
The "Praça do Comércio" square has been recognized as a national monument of Portugal since 1910.

Rozwój urbanistyczny brzegów rzeki Tag podlegał intensywnemu rozwojowi na początku XVI wieku, kiedy król Manuel I zbudował nową rezydencję królewską (Pałac Ribeira) nad rzeką. Obszar ten rozwijał dzięki budowie portu, obiektów stoczniowych i innych budynków administracyjnych regulujących handel pomiędzy Portugalią i innymi częściami ówczesnego świata. Za panowania króla Dom José I, wielkie trzęsienie ziemi w 1755, po którym nastąpiło tsunami i pożar, zniszczyło większość Lizbony, w tym Pałac Ribeira i inne budynki nad rzeką. Po trzęsieniu ziemi plac został całkowicie przebudowany. Zaprojektowano duży, prostokątny plac w kształcie litery "U", otwarty w kierunku Tagu.
Plac nazwano "Praça do Comércio" (Placem Handlu), aby wskazać na jego nową funkcję w gospodarce Lizbony. Centralnym punktem placu jest konny posąg króla José I. W kierunku ulicy Augusta, która łączy plac z innym tradycyjnym lizbońskim placem Rossio, zbudowano w 1875 roku łuk triumfalny, nazywany Arco da Rua Augusta.
Plac "Praça do Comércio" został uznany jako narodowy zabytek Portugalii od 1910 roku.

The Rua Augusta Arch is a stone, triumphal arch on the Praça do Comércio. It was built in 1755 following a huge earthquake. It has six columns (some 11 m high) and is adorned with statues of various historical figures. Significant height from the arch crown to the cornice imparts an appearance of heaviness to the structure.
Lisbon is a city with some wonderful open spaces one of the grandest is the Praca do Comercio. It has wonderful buildings on three sides the fourth side of the square is open to face the river Tagus. This is one quarter of the Praca showing the elegant and quite classical covered arcades. The square and the buildings around it were designed by the Marquis of Pombal after the massive earthquake of 1755 that destroyed much of the centre of Lisbon

Praça do Comércio was once the site of the Royal Palace, destroyed by the devastating earthquake of 1755. Following this disaster, the Marquis of Pombal ordered its reconstruction in a U-shape, featuring three large arcaded buildings that house government offices, Lisbon's main tourist information center and several restaurants and cafés, such as Martinho da Arcada, the oldest in the city and once frequented by intellectuals. The square also serves as a major transportation hub, so you'll see numerous tourist buses and Lisbon trams passing through it.
