Park located at the highest point in the city. It was also at the base of this hill that the gallows were located in modern times. This elevation was transformed into a romantic forest within the scope of the construction project for the Sanctuary of Nossa Senhora da Piedade and dos Santos Passos by the engineer Jorge Pereira Leite to serve as a public park for leisure, rest and stroll, nicknamed Nossa Senhora da Piedade and , after completion, Parque Zeferino de Oliveira. The planting of large trees started in 1889, as well as the construction of various elements characteristic of these spaces, such as benches, a grotto, a bandstand and a bazaar of reinforced concrete gifts imitating trunks and cork oak branches, in use in time, and two wooden bridges. In 1897 the staircases, the fountain and the lakes were built and the water was channeled. The work slowed down until it gained new momentum in the 1920s with the action of the Pro-Penafiel Commission and Zeferino de Oliveira. New australians, plantains, acacias and oaks were planted, a small lake with fountain was built, the great central staircase leading to the sanctuary, the largest lake, designed by Companhia Hortícola Portuense, and new banks were excavated. In the years 1950-1970, the large lake was drained and the Baile do Lago was held inside. Recent urban remodeling works have destroyed part of the main lake and shortened the garden space.
