Inside, you'll be captivated by ornate carvings and grand cloisters that echo with centuries-old stories steeped in exploration and faith.
São Jorge Castle stands proudly atop one of Lisbon's highest hills, offering breathtaking panoramic views over the cityscape below—a strategic location chosen by Moorish rulers back in the 11th century when they first built this fortress.
