Hi guys,
I just wans to thank you all for your feedback.
Mr. Teotonio Rodrigues is right, its Rachol (Raitura) entrance gate wall
(about 11 kms from
Margao)
But it cannot be just 100 or 200 years old , it could be even 400 years or
as old as Rachol
Seminary ? I even heard that the church was the first to build (Don't know
which one whether
Raitura or Rachol se pics) by the Portuguese followed by a Prison and then
the Seminary.
see 3 churches hre

The wall/Gate could be even oven 450 years old
Who will tell us ?

Like Roland, I cannot identify where the gate is but the 'crown emblem' is
the Portuguese coat of arms during the Portuguese Monarchy (hence the Royal
Crown). So, it is not only the heraldry of D. Manuel II but also of his
predecessors.
BTW, D. Manuel II was the last king of Portugal (1908-1910) from the House
of Braganca and he was forced to exile in England, where he died in 1932
without descendents. The heir to the throne of Portugal is today
represented
by D. Duarte of Braganca, the 24th Duke of Braganca, who loves Goa and has
visited Goa several times, the last time quite recently.
Best regards
Paulo Colaco Dias.
