The Valladão theme is a twomover theme that requires that in try and real play the key frees the arriving square of the threat.
The Valladão task requests that in the phases of the solution appear three specific moves: castle, en-passant capture and promotion. It was the theme of a thematic tourney organized by "O Globo" in 1966.
