With the construction of the Alqueva Dam, and because Monsaraz is not only a monumental town, but also a high point from which to enjoy spectacular views of the waters of the great lake, the number of tourists in this area has increased exponentially in recent years.

In a region dotted with megalithic monuments, it is believed that the earliest human occupation of this site dates back to a prehistoric hillfort, successively occupied by Romans, Visigoths, and Muslims, who derived their subsistence from activities related to the agro-pastoral economy. The place name is linked to the latter domain, since, in Portuguese, the word xarez (or xerez) derives from the Arabic saris (or sharish), designating the rockrose (xaras) vegetation then abundant along the banks of the Guadiana River. The place name Monsaraz thus evolved from Monte Xarez (or Xaraz).

At Mapcarta, the viewpoint is called Miradouro do Alqueva. From here, you have panoramic views of Albufeira de Alqueva and the town of Monsaraz.

Monsaraz is one of the best-preserved historic towns in the Alentejo and an old Templar domain. The town still boasts a continuous, enclosed city wall and many preserved historic buildings. This beautiful medieval town is an absolute highlight on any tour of Portugal. The village's narrow streets and whitewashed houses will transport you on a journey back in time. The most important sights are the old castle, the Matriz Church, and the former Palace of Justice. As long as you arrive before the hordes of tourists arrive by bus, a stroll through the old streets is truly enjoyable.

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

This is the most characteristic gate in Monsaraz, which is carved on the inside with two standard marks for the cloth market. The main entrance to the town, whose robust defensive structure is protected by two semi-cylindrical turrets. The one to the west, topped by the bell tower of the clock (probably built during the time of D. Pedro II), has a ribbed roof and, at the top of the dome, a bell cast by foreign artists Diogo de Abalde and Domingos de Lastra, with an inscription from 1692.

This is a work of art. It is a tribute to Alentejo singing and is located near the Alqueva Viewpoint, as well as the Rota dos Menires and the Churches of Monsaraz.
