CASTELO (CASTLE)
Go there and contact
Fortress in Sesimbra with a square and crenellated keep and a small archaeological museum with ancient objects.
The "Castelo dos Mouros" dominates the town, perched 230 m above sea level. This fortress has seen many ups and downs, destroyed and rebuilt on numerous occasions during the reign of King Denis. From the square, crenellated keep, where you climb a steep staircase, you have a fine view of the bay and Sesimbra, intersected at different angles by the small church of Santa Maria do Castelo (covered inside with azulejos). The castle also boasts a small archaeological museum (free of charge) displaying artifacts dating back to the Palaeolithic period.
