Castelo de Castro Marim
The outer wall, semicircular in shape, surrounded the medieval village and the so-called Old Castle. Today, only the remains of the castle with four turrets and a gate, the ruins of the Church of São Tiago, a 14th-century construction, and the Palace of the Mayors remain. The Castle offers a unique viewpoint over the Guadiana River, the village, the salt pans, and vast sea horizons.
