Places in Ribatejo

Castelo de Almourol
The fairytale Almourol Castle sits majestically on a small island in the Tagus River, an iconic medieval landmark only accessible by boat.

Santarém
Santarém, perched on a plateau above the Tejo, is known as Portugal's "Gothic Capital" and boasts a long history. Here you'll find impressive Gothic architecture, such as the Sé Catedral de Santarém, built on the foundations of a Jesuit college. The Jardim das Portas do Sol, situated on the ruins of a Moorish fortress, offers expansive panoramic views over the Tejo Valley and the surrounding landscape. In the Middle Ages, the city was a royal center and played a strategic role in Portuguese history. Characteristic of the Ribatejo region are also its traditions centered around horses and bullfighting, reflected in the architecturally significant Praça de Touros. For a relaxed visit, spring or autumn are recommended to peacefully explore the historic alleys and viewpoints. Take the opportunity to sample authentic Ribatejo cuisine in the local restaurants.

"enrichedDescription": "Tomar in Zentralportugal ist stark vom Templerorden geprägt. Das Convento de Cristo, ein UNESCO-Welterbe, zeigt romanische bis manuelinische Architektur und die Charola. Es war zentral für die portugiesischen Entdeckungen unter Heinrich dem Seefahrer. Die Altstadt birgt die mittelalterliche Synagoge, die Kirche São João Baptista und den Fluss Nabão.
