Viscount of Landal
The Viscount of Landal (Portuguese: Visconde de Landal) is a title of nobility created by King Luís I of Portugal on 22 December 1887, in favour of Julião Casimiro Ferreira Jordão. It was attributed to three generations but, after the death of the last heir (in 1980), the title was extinguished, but its history lives on in the last viscountess's surviving children.
