Torre das Três Coroas
About Torre das Três Coroas
The tower is all that is left of the original palace and surrounding castle Dom Dinis builded in honour of his wife. After her dead the castle was used as a ammunition dump. A explosion in the late 17th century destroyed the whole castle with the exception of the tower. In the 18th century the palace got restored. Now it is a pousada, an up-class hotel. The tower and some other parts of the palace are open to visitors

Great contrast between the old worn down tower and the stark white palace/pousada. Brilliant views from the top of the tower. But be careful climbing it because some parts are a bit dangerous and dark.
