EnglishThe Hotel Alianca was situated at the confluence of the Avenida dos Combatentes da Grande Guerra with Largo 5 de Outubro, in Viana do Castelo, and derived from another called Aguia d’Ouro. The archaeological intervention that was carried out in its interior exposed a section of the medieval wall of Viana do Castelo. In spite of being at a foundation level, it was proved that the stones of the wall were inscribed, that the crumb was full of smaller stone with clay and that, in certain sections, the base was staggered. portuguesO Hotel Alianca situava-se na confluencia da Avenida dos Combatentes da Grande Guerra com o Largo 5 de Outubro em Viana do Castelo e derivou da anterior unidade hoteleira Aguia d’Ouro.
