This church has a life-size wooden sculpture of Jesus carrying the cross, a wonderful piece of contemporary history.

Here the wide, compact dirt road passes under a suggestive arched bridge that looks like it has its age.

This sanctuary is located in an elevated position that offers spectacular views of the city of Porto, the Douro River and the Atlantic Ocean. It is an important place of pilgrimage and devotion for the local community. In addition to its religious significance, the site is highly regarded for its viewpoint.

Here you can pedal in complete tranquility on a quiet dirt road and nearby there are also a couple of small water basins.

According to various booking platforms, the lavishly restored former monastery now houses a 3-star hotel. During our visit in May 2025, the entire site appeared deserted.

After the castle's military use, the residents of Monsaraz built their own bullring here. Bullfights still occasionally take place here.

Like most Portuguese castles, this one is free to visit. The walls are accessible, offering a great view of the town and the surrounding area. Unfortunately, we weren't able to climb the keep. The old bullring is impressive.

Keep of Monsaraz Castle, unfortunately you can’t climb it,
