Castelo de Porto de Mós
The castle's floor plan is an irregular pentagon. It features a thick wall reinforced at each corner by a tower. Four of the five towers have been restored. The main façade is pierced by a semicircular arch, which provides access, through a vaulted opening, to the entrance door, with a segmental arch inside. On the second floor, there is a loggia with a double lanceolate arcade, resting on octagonal pillars and inverted cone-shaped corbels, with a pointed arch window on corbels on each side. It has four vaulted rooms that open onto a central courtyard, with a cistern in the middle, preceded by pilasters and a classicizing column. From the castle's balcony, the panoramic view encompasses the village, the Candeeiros mountain range, and a beautiful landscape.
