Pena Palace
Palace
Open Details
Moving to the next hotel in the list, you should start with this magnificent palace, from which everything started in this city. Today it looks as if it was moved here from a children's fairy tale. However, it is a real palace, whose history resembles the intricacies of one of the ancient fairy tales.
It all started with a small chapel built here to commemorate the birth of the Virgin Mary to one of the residents of the nearby villages. Later, in the 16th century, King Manuel I ordered the chapel to be rebuilt into the Monastery of Our Lady of Pena, in honor of the birth of the heir. During the struggle against the Moors, the castle was conquered, and as a result of numerous historical events played out here, the story of the Moors hiding their countless wealth in Mount Sintra before escaping was born. No one found the treasure, but we can say for sure that the Palace of Pena is a real treasure of Sintra.
