Casa da Rua de São Miguel, n.° 4 é um edifício histórico localizado na cidade do Porto, em Portugal.
Fazendo esquina com a Rua de São Bento da Vitória, o n.º 4 da Rua de São Miguel data do século XVII.
Os azulejos que a tornam especial e diferente, do século XIX, representam episódios da vida de Nossa Senhora e do quotidiano em geral. Acredita-se que estes azulejos faziam parte da decoração do Mosteiro de São Bento da Vitória e que de lá foram retirados para evitar os vandalismos e saques de que o mosteiro foi alvo depois do Cerco do Porto.

"O edifício integra-se num conjunto harmoniosos, em que está representada a arquitectura portuense dos séc. XVII a XIX. A fachada encontra-se recoberta de azulejos stecentistas, con cenas do quotisiano e paisagens. Estes painéis são provenientes da Sala do Capítulo do Mosteiro de São Bento da Vitória."

"Crossing the Rua de S. Bento da Vitória and the Rua de São Miguel you will find the House of Rua de São Miguel, on no. 4. The tiles dating from the 19th century that cover it and make it so special and different depict episodes from the life of Our Lady and general everyday life scenes. The street called S. Miguel was one of the main streets within the Olival New Jewish Quarter, created in 1386 following the instructions of the king D. João I."

The building is integrated in a complex whole representing Oporto's architecture of the XVII to XIX century. The façade is recovered by a panel of tiles from the XVIII century, proceeding from the São Bento da Vitória Monastery.
