The castle of Montemor o Velho is the largest fortification along the rio Mondego and was important during the Reconquista. Very old but well preserved is a great look on the hill where it rises and offers beautiful views of the area when you come to visit it. Beautiful port in the Barbican, the donjon and the interesting little church. To see if, like me, you love the ancient military architecture.
