The Rio Frio Palace was built in the early 20th century, in a privileged location near Montijo, Alcochete, and the banks of the Tagus River. Once, the property, covering approximately 17,000 hectares, was considered one of the largest estates in the country, primarily producing wine. In subsequent generations, the estate was inherited by a nephew of José Maria dos Santos, Alfredo Santos Jorge, who commissioned the construction of the Rio Frio Palace. Dona Maria de Lourdes Pereira Lupi d'Orey, the current owner of the Rio Frio Palace and great-niece of Alfredo Santos Jorge, recalls the magic of life on the estate. From a large family deeply connected to the countryside and agriculture, her brother José Samuel Lupi stands out as a bullfighting figure. The house offers elegant décor, with a magnificent collection of tiles by Jorge Colaço. It offers an enchanting journey through the gardens and woods, providing a unique experience.

In wartime situations, it controlled the space between Lisbon and the South, between the Tagus and Sado rivers. During the Islamic period and the Christian offensive in the 12th and 13th centuries, this geostrategic position was compatible with other fortified sites—Coina, Sesimbra, and the Sado riverbank. In the surrounding area—with good conditions for grazing and a large area of agricultural land—some rural communities settled during the Islamic period, such as the village of Alto da Queimada (Serra do Louro). Inside the wall, the ruins of the Church of Santa Maria do Castelo welcome visitors: Palmela's first parish church, probably from the 12th century (founded by King Afonso Henriques?), subject to interventions mainly in the 16th and 17th centuries and severely damaged by the 1755 earthquake. The walls, the pentagonal Keep—a 16th-century construction—are part of the original structure. The castle dates back to the 14th century, where the Bishop of Évora, D. Garcia de Meneses, was imprisoned in the waterless cistern for conspiring against King John II. The bishop died there from poisoning in 1484. The parade ground and barracks are worth visiting. As it stands, the castle is the result of several construction campaigns—repairs, reconstructions, and expansions—up until the 18th century. Archaeological work has identified some sections of the wall from the Islamic period, and other construction phases are recognized, likely dating from the post-reconquest period and, later, from the reign of King John I. The bastion system that surrounds the first line of fortification was commissioned by King Pedro II. In the house of the Prior-Major of the Order, or the military commander of the fortress—after the abolition of the orders (in 1834)—the explorer of African lands, Hermenegildo Carlos de Brito Capelo, son of the fortress's governor, was born on February 4, 1841. Palmela Castle was classified as a National Monument by Decree-Law of June 16, 1910. Parking outside the walls is recommended.

Behind the simple facade on Rua das Portas de Santo Antão lies one of the city's most magnificent palaces – a true architectural gem. What now serves as a cultural center and restaurant was originally built in the 17th century as the city palace of the Alverca family. The magnificent rooms, with their Moorish and neo-Baroque elements, speak of bygone splendors. Access to the courtyard in front of the restaurant is free, but in return, quiet and consideration for the "actual" guests are expected. ;-)

The absolute highlight is the location. Fantastic panoramic view from the Atlantic to Lisbon. The rooms are large and functionally furnished, the bathroom is large and has a bathtub. Breakfast - the usual as in all PESTANA hotels, not really great, but sufficient. The staff is friendly. Anyone looking for absolute peace and quiet and a starting point for exploring the Alentejo and Lisbon is in good hands here.

This is where the Pousada Castello de Palmela is located. The house is located 230 meters above sea level in an 11th century castle high on a rock above the city and offers a fantastic 360 degree view. You can see the mountain with the castle from all directions - wonderful.

The Castle of Palmela is a private castle that has a variety of uses. It includes a hotel and restaurants for visitors. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castle_of_Palmela The architectural style is mixed, including Moorish. The view is magnificent, you can see the large 25th of April Bridge, for example.
