Barcelos Rooster The Barcelos Rooster is a legendary rooster from the town of Barcelos, Portugal. According to Portuguese folklore, this famous fowl was said to have been involved in a series of miraculous events that took place many years ago. A guest at an inn had been wrongly accused of theft and was about to be hanged when the innkeeper's wife brought out a rooster as proof of his innocence. The rooster squawked loudly, causing the rope to break, and saving the guest from certain death. From that day forward, the Barcelos Rooster became synonymous with good luck and honesty. It is often depicted in art and literature as a symbol of hope and redemption. People visiting Portugal bring back souvenirs featuring this iconic rooster, and it has even been adopted by local businesses as their logo.
