Convent Of Christ and the Templar Castle

• See Tomar’s historic centre from its viewpoint
• Explore the Templar Castle and Convent of Christ
• View the Charola’s uniquely painted panels
• Admire the Chapter window and main cloister

Much more than a simple, plain visit to the ex-libris of the city, the Convent of Christ. This tour guides you and immerses you in the mythic Templar History to transport you all the way to the beginning of Tomar’s history and the Templar Knights.

This place has become, throughout the decades, a live museum of Portuguese History, having been in this exact same place where important Portuguese history pages were written. Leafing through this immense book we will get in touch with the diverse styles and forms that coexist there, making it the greatest example of this magnitude in the world: from the Charola and its uniquely painted panels to the illustrious Capitulo window or the architecture of the main cloister.

Comfortable clothes and shoes.
