Despite efforts to eliminate reminders of Portugal's Estado Novo dictatorship, over 721 streets in 195 municipalities still honor main figures from that era, including 17 streets named after dictator Salazar.

Figures who resisted the regime, such as Consul Aristides de Sousa Mendes and General Humberto Delgado, are also commemorated with street names.

Prominent Estado Novo figures like Francisco Craveiro Lopes, Óscar Carmona, and Gomes da Costa are memorialized with numerous public spaces named after them.

The extensive naming of streets and public spaces after Estado Novo figures is spread widely across Portugal, reflecting a complex debate about the commemoration of the dictatorship's legacy.

Monuments and infrastructures, including statues and the Duarte Pacheco Bridge and Viaduct, further contribute to the discussion on how the Estado Novo period should be remembered.
