Estremoz

Estremoz is one of the oldest Portuguese towns, and its wines are produced in a region with a controlled designation of origin. In addition to several listed monuments, the region boasts palaces, farms, water mills, and valuable agricultural land. It is internationally renowned for its white marble deposits. The mining of Estremoz marble has ancient origins, as evidenced by the Roman Temple of Évora, which contains marble originally from Estremoz. It is also present on the main altar of the Évora Cathedral. Clayware, cork pieces, and leather clothing are the most significant examples of local craftsmanship. Lamb stew, dogfish soup, oven-roasted donkey, and migas are typical dishes you should try.
