    Monsaraz, the graceful medieval village of Monsaraz, maintains the magic from ancient times like few others in the world. Made of lime and schist, this place whispers us, between the echo of our footsteps in its streets. A lot of magnificent stories could be told about its courageous kings, Knights Templar, brave people and dames of simple beauty.

      Monsaraz is a medieval village surrounded by a wall, guarded by an imposing castle, located at its highest point. It is one of the oldest settlements in Portugal, and a must-see on a tour of the Alentejo.

      The village of Monsaraz is a parish in the municipality of Reguengos de Monsaraz, in the Alentejo region of Portugal. The village has around 800 inhabitants and looks like a place that has stopped in time, without changing its style for centuries.

        From Monsaraz you have a very good view of the Grande Lago - Albufeira de Alqueva reservoir.
