Fortaleza de Juromenha

Of the primitive castle of Moorish origin and later renovated by Dom Dinis, only vestiges of the fence remain. Built during the Restoration Wars, the bastion works brought down the defensive lines to the vicinity of the Guadiana River, a natural border line. Of the existing buildings, the old Chamber and the Senate House, in ruins, stand out.
