Description

Monsaraz shows signs of having been a fortified settlement during prehistoric times. It has always had strong military and religious influences, impeccably preserving time until these days. The privileged location of this small village, located on the top of the hill and then with a view over the river Guadiana and the frontier with Spain, made it highly coveted by the peoples which disputed it.Monsaraz is a charming village in Portugal and even now, this village still retains its historic and medieval atmosphere. Whitewashed houses which were established between the 16th and 17th century are dotted across the village’s main street, Rua Direita.
