Tips

Hiking

6 km long aqueduct that is still accessible. Sometimes after the rain, water also collects in the channel, in which water used to flow.

Hiking

Very large aqueduct, 6 km long. Best viewed from different spots. Be careful: if it has rained, there is water in parts of the channel and it is slippery.

Construction started on it in 1593 by Italian architect Filippo Terzi and ended in 1613. The aqueduct is nearly 6 km long (3.7 miles) and for centuries remained the most important source of water to the monks who lived in the Convento de Cristo. Most tourists will actually be surprised to find such a huge structure in a small city like Tomar.
