Statues of King Afonso Henriques and King John I (Portuguese: Estátuas de D. Afonso Henriques e D. João I) are two stone statues in Lisbon, Portugal, located in the Mário Soares Garden, within the civil parish of Alvalade. They were made by Leopoldo de Almeida between 1946 and 1950, and dedicated to Afonso Henriques, first King of Portugal that ruled from 1139 to 1185, and John I, King of Portugal from to 1385 to 1433, and founder of the House of Aviz. They were originally placed in the atrium of the Lisbon City Hall, and relocated to their current location in 1997.
