The Clock Tower is currently the symbol of the city of Montemor-o-Novo.

Built during the reign of King Dinis (13th – 14th centuries), it became the castle’s main defence tower. It underwent major renovations in the 16th century, when the Guard House was incorporated and a bell tower was installed to hold the clock bells. The clock had three bronze bells: one for the hours, another for the half-hours and the last for the quarter-hours.

The main access door to the castle is located under the Clock Tower. It is called the town or Santarém gate.

Classification: MN – National Monument, Decree no. 38 147, DG, 1st series, no. 4 of 5 January 1951 *1 / ZEP / “Non-built” zone, DG, 2nd series, no. 177 of 28 July 1962

Here you enter the castle complex coming from the parking lot. You can walk a little bit on the wall, but you have to turn back
