Sao Jorge Castle

Sao Jorge Castle

Sao Jorge Castle is one of the most iconic monuments and awe-inspiring sights in Portugal as it stands majestically above the city of Lisbon. Although this was once the ancient seat and focal point of Portugal for more than 400 years, the present day castle dates from the early 1900’s when it underwent a major restoration project. However, this does not detract from the allure of Sao Jorge Castle for tourists, and it remains one of the real highlights for many visitors to Lisbon.
