Castelo de Pombal

In this grandiose monument remain the extensive walls, the quadrangular cubelos, the donjon and the remains of two barbicans, who witness his defensive value. Rebuilt in the reign of Dom Manuel I, are visible to the armillary sphere, a Manueline moth window, which opens on coastal wall, and the Royal arms. Within the walls there are traces of the chapel of St. Michael and a Romanesque Colonnade.
