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.
