アルentejoの北東端に位置するCastelo de Videは、スペインとの国境からわずか数キロの距離にあります。この町は、主に美しい白い漆喰の家々から、Cidade branca（白い町）として知られています。この町のハイライト（Parque Natural da Serra de São Mamedeの素晴らしいロケーションに加えて）は、14世紀に建てられたCastelo de São Roqueです。城からは旧市街の素晴らしい景色を眺めることができます。Castelo de Videのその他の見どころには、ポルトガルで最も古いシナゴーグがある古いユダヤ人地区や、町の数多くの教会や礼拝堂があります。

The castle was founded by King D. Dinis in 1290, with the aim of defending the Alentejo border. Originally, it had an imposing structure with a double ring of walls, twelve towers and eight gates. Over the centuries, it lost part of its structure to the growth of the city, but it remains a National Monument. The Keep is the best-preserved part of the original complex. Inside, there is a museum that you can visit.

A place to visit every month. It's wonderful.

The current pillory dates from the years immediately following the granting of the New Charter by King Manuel in 1512 and reflects his Manueline, albeit very rustic, style. The monument stands in front of the 16th-century district jail building and next to the clock tower, also from the 16th century, in the square that bears his name. It stands on a base with four octagonal steps and consists of an octagonal shaft set directly into the upper step, formed by five drums with mortar joints.

The fortified town of Marvão, 12 kilometers from Quinta do Pomarinho, is also known as the "Eagle's Nest." It boasts a spectacular location on a granite cliff, atop one of the peaks of the Serra de São de Mamede mountain range. Completely walled, Marvão is situated in the Alto Alentejo region, near the Spanish border, which was once controlled from the village. The town of Marvão owes its name to Ibn Maruane, an Arab military leader who sought refuge here in the 11th century. He hid on Mount Ammaia and built a castle there, in the most remote and inaccessible spot he could find. Years later, the castle was transformed into a medieval fortress. Its location made it a strategic defensive position, nestled among hills with slopes to the north, south, and west, accessible only on foot from the village. For many years, Marvão was a municipality heavily and significantly involved in numerous military conflicts in the region. Today, Marvão is a rather sleepy town, but one where you can enjoy wonderful walks. More information can be found here: https://www.feriasemportugal.com/marvao

Beirã is a small, quiet town surrounded by rolling countryside, with cork oak forests, olive groves and a rural, peaceful atmosphere typical of the Alto Alentejo. This village is often associated with its historic train station, once an important hub on the line between Lisbon and Madrid, which still retains some of its old-world charm. Beirã is an ideal base for exploring the surrounding nature and the area's rich historical sites, such as the nearby, well-preserved medieval village of Marvão, perched on a hill, or the Roman city of Ammaia.

Castelo do Alegrete is an imposing medieval fortress located on a rocky outcrop near the village of Alegrete, Portugal. Dating back to at least the 13th century (with probably older origins), it played a key role in defending the border with Spain. It features a large quadrilateral wall with cubic towers. Although part of the castle is in ruins, it still retains elements such as parapets, gates and arrow slits. It offers spectacular views of the surrounding landscape and is an important national monument, a testimony to the defensive history of the region.
