The podcast “110 Histórias | 110 Objetos” (“110 Stories, 110 Objects”) covers the 110 years of history of Instituto Superior Técnico, through its past, present and future objects.

A collection of objects related to different fields, such as science, music, arts and sports, is the starting point for conversations with people who will tell us more about the history of these objects.

A new episode is released every week. The podcast “110 Histórias | 110 Objetos”  is part of the Público newspaper podcasts.

Today’s episode (#23) – 3rd December: “110 Histórias | 110 Objetos” – “A Estátua da Engenharia” (Statue honouring engineering – Alameda Campus )

The statue honouring engineering was designed by Salvador Barata Feyo. It remained for decades of unknown origin and author until this podcast episode. The statue arrived at Alameda campus in 1948, on the occasion of the exhibition “Quinze anos de Obras Públicas” (“Fifteen years of Public Works”), and has been holding, since then, the historical symbols of engineering (a compass and a square) in his right hand and a drawing of the Duarte Pacheco Viaduct in his left hand.
