About

Explore a Knights Templar temple in the town of Tomar, with a visit to the Convent of Christ, and brush up on your medieval history at one of Portugal’s most impressive cultural heritage sites. This monumental building traces its history all the way back to the Knights Templar in the 12th century, and today is a remarkable cultural space and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Being almost a thousand years old, the building blends many centuries of architectural schools together in spectacular fashion, with some of the most expressive and emblematic periods of Portuguese architecture on show. You’ll see motifs of Romanesque, Gothic, Manueline, and Renaissance as you explore. See the Romanesque Charola in the church, the cloister of King João III, and the famous Manueline window in the Chapter House.
