It's an aqueduct - a duct to carry aqua, water.
On one side, it picks up water from some spring (or more than one) outside Lisbon and then brings it over to the center of the city.... always going downhill, but never more than required.
Nah, everybody knows an aquaduct is an invisible duck that barbarian hordes are fond of using to steal into the forbidden palace and depose the emperor.
