Praça Alexandre Albuquerque is the main square of the capital city of Praia, Cape Verde.

It is located in the southwestern part of the Plateau, the historical city centre of Praia.

Formerly known as Praça do Pelourinho, it received its current name in 1876 in honour of the Portuguese colonial governor Caetano Alexandre de Almeida e Albuquerque.

[1][2] It is lined with several historical public buildings and townhouses, many of which date from the 19th century.

The centre of the square is a public park with monuments to Alexandre Albuquerque (a bronze bust from 1926) and Serpa Pinto (a bronze bust from 1927).
