A statue of Diogo de Meneses stands on a stone plinth next to a stone wall in Cascais, Portugal. The statue depicts a man in 16th-century clothing holding a sword. The statue stands on grass and beneath a large tree. A stone plaque on the plinth identifies the man as Diogo de Meneses (1510/20-1580), Captain of Malaca, Governor of India, and General-Chief of the troops of D. Antonio I of Portugal. The plaque recounts that he confronted the army of Philip II of Spain, commanded by the Duke of Alba, in Cascais and was executed under his orders on August 12, 1580.
