Governor's Castle

Parallel to the Avenue of the Discoveries, the Castle of Governors has little of its initial construction (it's undergone many changes over time). It's one of the main references of Lagos and played host to Algarve governors (until 1755). The facade has a Manueline window where D. Sebastian heard mass before leaving for the battle of Alcacer Quibir, and in the gardens, facing the window, 3 panels by sculptor Juan Cutileiro evoke this historic battle that killed the Portuguese king.
