Revitalização do Castelo de Almourol ______________________________________________________________________________ 2. CARACTERIZAÇÃO ARQUITETÓNICA 2.1. O Castelo de Almourol – construção, restauros e funções. Quando os templários estavam a concluir a construção do castelo de Tomar, decorria o ano de 1169, receberam a doação dos castelos de Cardiga e de Zêzere. Foi na fronteira sul destes novos domínios, no âmbito territorial do castelo do Zêzere, que os templários decidiram erguer o Castelo de Almourol. A ordem militar ficava, assim, na posse de um vastíssimo domínio, com uma implantação estratégica notável, que lhes permitia controlar os caminhos que se dirigiam de Leste para Santarém acompanhando a margem norte do Rio Tejo, uma vasta área do vale do Tejo e também a via que atravessava o Rio Tejo em Punhete, atual Constância, e se dirigia até Coimbra. Era, na época, uma das estradas medievais mais trilhadas. Todas estas circunstâncias davam sentido à localização e construção da nova estrutura militar. Figura 1. Vista do Castelo de Almourol. 7 Revitalização do Castelo de Almourol ______________________________________________________________________________ O castelo de Almourol terá sido erguido no local de um primitivo castro lusitano conquistado pelos romanos no séc. I a.C. e remodelado segundo a técnica castrense ocupado sucessivamente pelos Alanos, Visigodos e Mouros. Em escavações efetuadas no interior e exterior do castelo foram encontrados vários vestígios da presença romana (moedas, uma inscrição num cipo, e restos de alicerces em opus romano) e do período medieval (medalhas, 2 colunelos de mármore). A bibliografia consultada aponta para construções anteriores ao castelo de Almourol durante o século II a.C. Quando em 1129 as tropas portuguesas conquistaram este ponto estratégico do país, o Castelo já existia com a denominação Almorolan, sendo entregue aos templários quando da reconquista por D.

In the Heart of Portugal
In the Heart of Portugal ABOUT In the Heart of Portugal Come and discover the “heart of Portugal” - following routes that we’ve prepared for you. Over the centuries, this zone - the cradle of Portuguese identity – has served as a vital cultural crossroads and the setting for key historical facts. We propose four itineraries, that include three of Portugal’s most important monuments classified as world Heritage sites by UNESCO – the Monastery of Alcobaça, The Convent of Christ and the Monastery of Batalha. Linked to key episodes in Portuguese history, these exquisite monuments combine various architectural styles. The oldest, the Monastery of Alcobaça was founded by Portugal’s first king, and pertained to the Order of Cistercians, which played an essential role in Portugal’s agricultural and cultural development. The Convent of Christ - where one still senses the mystique of the Knights Templar - is located next to the castle built in 1160 by the Military Order, that chose Tomar as the bastion for defence and expansion of the territory conquered from the Moors. The Monastery of Batalha - a masterpiece of late Gothic architecture - pays testimony to affirmation of Portuguese independence against the powerful Kingdom of Castille. But there’s far more to discover in this region. The “Treasure of the Templars” route is the ideal itinerary for those who enjoy chivalric romances. Starting in Tomar, a sacred geographical centre for the Knights Templar, this itinerary will introduce you to their symbols– in the Church of Santa Maria do Olival, where initiation ceremonies were held, or the Round Church of the Convent of Christ where the knights used to hear mass.

The City of Tomar Is a Medium-Size City in Central Portugal, Beautifully
Tomar The City of Tomar is a medium-size city in central Portugal, beautifully located on the banks of the river Nabão, which gives its name to the city’s inhabitants, the Nabantinos . With about 43 000 inhabitants, it spreads over an area of 352 km². The municipality is composed of 16 parishes and it is located in the district of Santarém, which in turn is part of the province of Ribatejo. It is a natural area of great heritage and touristic value where the beautiful Albufeira do Castelo de Bode is integrated. The city is dissected by the river Nabão, a tributary of the river Zêzere, which contributes to the basin of the river Tagus, the longest river in the Iberian Peninsula. The streets and squares in Tomar’s picturesque centre are organized following a chessboard pattern. Scattered throughout the town are many interesting houses with facades dated from the Renaissance, Baroque and Romantic periods. On a small island in the middle of the river Nabão there is a park, the Mouchão gardens, that offers nice views of the city and its surroundings.

Tour Dos Templários
Tour dos Templários Este circuito leva-nos a viajar através do tempo pelos olhos dos Cavaleiros Templários. A Ordem do Templo nasceu no ano de 1118 na cidade de Jerusalém, quando 9 destemidos cavaleiros decidem prestar auxilio aos peregrinos que queria ir à cidade sem correr risco de vida. O serviço prestado pela Ordem, torna-se tão importante para os cristãos que o seu crescimento e expansão se torna inevitável. Portugal tem uma presença inquestionável da Ordem, tornando-se um território privilegiado para sentir a mística dos Templários. Sejam bem Vindos! Lisboa Num cerco à cidade que durou quase 4 meses (1 de Julho a 21 de outubro de 1147), a Cidade da Luz Branca que se encontrava sob domínio Mouro, foi tomada por D. Afonso Henriques com ajuda de Templários e Cruzados Normandos, Ingleses, Escoceses, Flamengos e Alemães contatados pelo Bispo do Porto. Numa elaborada estratégia construíram-se catapultas e uma enorme torre para facilitar a entrada de Lisboa. As sucessivas investidas fizeram o “inimigo” enfraquecer e os ataques acabaram por derrubar as muralhas junto das Portas do Sol. Castelo de S. Jorge Localizado na colina mais alta do centro histórico, bairro do Castelo, São Jorge, santo padroeiro dos cavalos e das cruzadas dá nome a este icónico marco da cidade. Alfama O bairro mais típico e acarinhado de Lisboa, não só pelas suas caraterísticas arquitetónicas de influência Moura, mas também pelo espírito bairrista e hospitaleiro das pessoas que ali habitam. Sé de Lisboa A Sé começou a ser construída em 1147 e finalizada nas primeiras décadas do século XIII.

Loose Threads in a Tapestry of Stone: the Architecture of the Newport Tower
LOOSE THREADS IN A TAPESTRY OF STONE: THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE NEWPORT TOWER SUZANNE CARLSON The rough stone tower, a clumsy roofless cylinder, propped on eight sturdy but ungraceful legs topped by irregular stone arches, and pierced by an odd array of windows, niches and random holes, was just one stop on the occasional outing to Newport by overworked architectural students from the Rhode island School of Design. This curio reminded one student, me, of the demolished replica remembered from my childhood in Worcester, Massachusetts. Abandoned to the perimeter of a growing repertoire of memorable structures, Newport Tower was forgotten for twenty-five years. During a later European outing, that included the round church at Lanleff, Brittany, Patrick Ferryn suggested I write something about the architecture of that unusual structure and compare it with the Newport Tower. It seemed like a good idea. I was, and still am, a practicing architect specializing in historic preservation. A love of old buildings, nurtured during my student days in Italy, has led me along the highways and byways of Europe from Iceland to Portugal, from the Orkney Islands to the Aegean, as an ardent student of architectural curiosities. Back home, the day to day confrontation with the building styles and techniques of early New England offered a good basis for evaluating the various waves of theories accounting for this unlikely Newport ruin, which has captured the imagination of many for over two centuries. This is a stopping point on a fascinating quest leading down unexpected paths and allusive trails and I invite you to share my adventure.
