Thought I was walking into a fort but instead found myself walking into a beautiful courtyard surrounded by art galleries, tavern, bookstore, sitting areas, and the most impressive sculptures both in the front and back. There's a modern 5-star hotel at one end with a very impressive lobby. Great place if you want to have some quiet time away from the crowded bustling streets of Cascais. I'm not sure if there was anything else inside the fortress but this area alone made it worthwhile.

This is an amazing star/bastion fort. Because it has civilian buildings, it is a citadel. There's also a lighthouse at the end.

Very well organised tour. You will get an in-depth travel through the Portuguese past, relationships with other countries that go waaaaay back, beautiful gifts from other rulers of old . Everything is kept pristine and functional and the place was even used as an official residence quite recently. Worth a visit.

Beautiful place to visit in Cascais, its located near the beach, just a few steps, walk around and feel the special atmosphere of this magical small town, there's nice restaurants all over the place, and you better taste the fresh fishes with a glass of port wine 🍷, the open blue ocean make the moment so special and unique. 😍 This area is fantastic for handling around in the evening and it is recommended.

The Citadel of Cascais is a historic fortress located in the charming coastal town of Cascais, Portugal. The citadel was built in the 15th century to protect the town from pirate attacks, and it has since been restored and converted into a cultural and tourist center. The citadel is an impressive sight, with its imposing walls and towers overlooking the sea. Inside, visitors can explore the various buildings that make up the complex, including the Governor's Palace, the Chapel of Our Lady of the Assumption, and the Cidadela Art District. The buildings are beautifully preserved and offer a glimpse into the history and culture of Cascais.
