Walls and Bastions

The strategic location of Lagos attracted different civilizations (Phoenicians, Greeks, Carthaginians and Romans), but not until the tenth century did the Muslims rule, when the primitive fishing village became more important and walls were built to protect the city. All that we see today were built on these walls that were completed in the fourteenth century, around the hexagonal so-called Vila Adentro (primitive historical Lagos). In the sixteenth/seventeenth centuries they were reinforced with several bastions, of which 5 survive today and 2 gates. From Cabral Judice Park there are good views of these walls and bastions.

You can access the pedestrianized city center from here through Porta dos Quartos.
