2 reviews of The Castle of Lindoso

Castle used to integrate the defense poliicy of the Portuguese king

Excellent

Lindoso Castle was constructed during the reign of D. Alfonso III, around the year 1250, to integrate its defense policy in the border areas, which were extended in the reign of King Dionysius. This castle played a sinificant role during the War of Restoration of Independence of Portugal, and it went through many periods of modernization. Since the late 19th century it lost its military importance, was abandoned and in decline. Since the 70s it was classified as a national monument and went through restoration and now is used for cultural activities promoted by the municipality, through the National Park of Peneda-Gerês and the Museu Militar do Porto.

Along Lindoso Castle is another monumental with 50 corn granaries of the 18th and 18th centuries, showing a single set in the ara of great architectural beauty, arranged in a esplanade in the sun, as "warriors forming in defense of his castle ". Made completely of stone, each granary is based on many pillars with stone lattice and topped by pillars, ceilings and stone crosses of the same material. From the whole castle one can see the mountains of Peneda Geres PN and PN Límia Baixa, which together form a swamp one of the most beautiful views.
