TOMAR

On the hill, a jewel of Manueline Art is present in the
Convent of Christ (World Heritage) and the remaining walls of the castle that was the headquarters of the Order of the Temple in Portugal.

The square lined city, founded by the monk-knights,
the Manueline art and the Renaissance is present in the churches
of São João Batista, Santa Iria and the chapels of
Nossa Senhora da Conceição, São Gregório and São Lourenço.

 Tomar has even more to charm its visitors.
 From the freshness of the park in  the margins of the Nabão River
 to the curious Museum of the Fósforos  (Matches) to the gothic
 church of Santa Maria do Olival and the evocation of Henry,
 the Navigator and his influence in the historical feats that were
 the Discoveries.

 History and art reach the churches and spread along the green
 landscape that surrounds Tomar.
 Nearby is the Castelo do Bode lagoon, the water permits the
 practice of water sports.
