Learn all about the Knights Templar on this fascinating tour that will take you back in time. Along the way, visit Almourol Castle, the Church of Santa Maria do Olival, and the oldest Portuguese Synagogue.

Begin your tour with a visit to the Almourol Castle in the district of Santarem. Built on a small island 310 meters long and 75 meters wide in the middle course of the Tagus River, Almourol was part of the Tagus River Line.

It is one of the most representative examples of military architecture at the time of the Christian Reconquest. You will then visit the Santa Maria dos Olivais Church.

The church, also known as the Church of Santa Maria do Olival, is located on the left bank of the river Nabao, in the city of Tomar, Portugal. Next up on your tour is the Convent of Christ. The entrance of the convent is made through a portico, an authentic sculpture by João and Diogo de Castilho.

This Convent crosses times and artistic languages that travel through Romanesque, Gothic, Manueline, Renaissance, Baroque, and has been a Unesco World Heritage Site since 1983. In the center of Tomar, you will be able to visit the oldest Portuguese Synagogue. Its roof is supported by 4 columns representing the mothers of Israel: Sarah, Rachel, Rebecca and Leah, and is linked by 12 arches, symbolizing the 12 tribes of Israel.

At the conclusion of your tour, you will be returned back to Lisbon.
