Erected on a round hill overlooking the picturesque village of Santiago do Cacém, the castle has watched over the surroundings since the 12th century, when the country was occupied by the Moors. Today considered a national monument, its square keeps and loopholes that encircle the walls are a reminder of its major role in history.

The (pilgrim) apostle James the Greater ("Santiago Major"), whose tomb has been venerated for many centuries in Santiago de Compostela (Galicia, Spain), experienced a golden age during the so-called Reconquista (reconquest) of the Iberian Peninsula. Legends circulated that he rode ahead of the Christian army on a white horse in important battles. The knights and soldiers apparently dedicated a church to him here, and even the town of "Santiago do Cacem" bears his name.
