Castelo de Alvito has a character different from the majority of the other castles in the country, because it was not exactly built with defense objectives.
Founded in the 15th century, its architecture suggests something between a manor house and a palace.
Massive and imponent, it features towers with round angles and an original watchtower.
The castle, once the residence of marquis of Alvito, hosts nowadays a beautiful pousada, surrounded by a small garden.
