Can I cancel a signed rental contract in Portugal if the landlord hid major damp problems?

Question

I signed a long-term rental agreement and moved in, but within days I found serious damp and mould that wasn’t disclosed during visits. The landlord says I can’t terminate early and wants to keep my deposit. What are my options to rescind the contract or claim compensation?
