Places of interest Estremoz
Estremoz is a pleasant city that has a Moorish feel to it due to the many buildings, streets, sidewalks, and houses of marble. You can walk around in Estremoz through streets with wrought iron balconies, window boxes full of begonias, and over lively squares with white houses with red roofs. Estremoz consists of an old upper town with a relatively slightly younger lower town. Both are surrounded by a 17th-century fortress wall with embrasures and bastions.
The medieval upper town of Estermoz is dominated by a 13th-century marble tower of 27 meters high: the Torre das Três Coroas. The ‘tower of the three crowns’ reminds you of the kings that Estremoz had. The life of the wife of one of them is depicted on ‘azulejos’ in Capela da Rainha Santa. Next to the Torre is the former white palace, where a pousada is now housed. In the museum of the town of Estremoz you will find a collection of ‘bonecos’ together with archaeological findings.
Surroundings Estremoz
Nearby Estermoz there are many marble quarries that have already been exploited in the late Middle Ages.
The town of Borba is the least visited marble town. It is a quiet little town full of beautiful marble details like marble sills, stairs, window frames, and chimneys. Borba is also known for its fine red wines.
