Visit the Church of São João Baptista, the ancient Templar pantheon of Santa Maria do Olival, the Medieval Synagogue, the Convent of Santa Iria, and the Mouchão waterwheel, an example of historic Muslim hydraulic engineering.

Along the way, discover how architecture, sculpture, painting, and poetry were used to communicate political, religious, and philosophical ideas during the time of the Knights Templar and the Order of Christ. Learn about hidden symbols, coded meanings, and the spiritual traditions that shaped the city’s identity through prehistoric, Roman, and medieval influences.
