The history of Portugal was deeply shaped by the Knights Templar, who played a pivotal role in the Christian reconquest in the 12th century. Their legacy is evident in the architecture and landmarks still standing today. On this tour, we’ll visit these historic sites, where history and architecture merge to bring the past to life. One highlight is Almourol Castle, a unique fortress on a small island in the River Tagus, offering stunning views of the river and surrounding landscape. Its isolated location and strategic position add to its mystique. In Tomar, the Convent of Christ and Castle reflect the blend of medieval Templar influence and Renaissance architecture. The Convent was once the Templars' headquarters in Portugal, showcasing centuries of history. We’ll also visit Dornes Tower, a small fortified tower along the Tagus River, adding further historical depth to our journey through these incredible landmarks.
