It is one of the most visited castles of the country. It is quite impossible to talk about the history of Lisbon and Portugal without mentioning the S\u00e3o Jorge Castle<\/i><\/strong>. <\/p>\n

It were the Muslims that started building the fortification, which was the last major defence stronghold for the elites of the time. In 1147, with the conquest of Lisbon by the first King of Portugal, its golden age began and the castle had to be extended to host all the members of the Court. During the twelth century, it was turned into a Royal Palace by the Portuguese kings, where many importants figures were invited and parties were organized. <\/p>\n

From 1580, the Iberian Union started, which was the dynastic union of the Kingdom of Portugal and the Spanish Crown, and the castle gained more of a military function. <\/p>\n

Between 1938 and 1940, the S\u00e3o Jorge Castle<\/i><\/strong> went through refurbishment works, and remains of ancient times and of the ancient Royal palace were found, which allowed the castle to gain back its importance. The new findings led to the opening of the monument to the public. <\/p>\n

Since it was built on the highest hill of Lisbon, the S\u00e3o Jorge Castle<\/i><\/strong> can be spotted from many different parts of the city! So you can be sure you won’t miss it! If you’re interested in finding out more about the castle, read on and discover 5 fun facts about the S\u00e3o Jorge Castle in Lisbon<\/strong> and get to know its history a little more in detail! <\/p>\n

Fun fact n\u00ba1: Several people lived in the area<\/h4>\n

\"5funfactsaboutthesaojorgecastleinlisbon1\"<\/p>\n

Archaelogical researches proved that the area was not randomly chosen by the Moors, the Arab peoples from North Africa that conquered a great part of Southern Europe during the Middle Ages. It turns out that this area of Lisbon<\/a> was once inhabited by Phoenicians, Greeks, Carthaginians from the seventh century before Christ. Romans also built a defensive structure uphill. <\/p>\n

Fun fact n\u00ba2: This medieval castle is just eighty years old<\/h4>\n

\"5funfactsaboutthesaojorgecastleinlisbon4\"<\/p>\n

In 1755, when the Lisbon great earthquake happened, many areas and buildings were destroyed, so the S\u00e3o Jorge Castle<\/i><\/strong> was very damaged from the natural disaster. Later, new constructions were erected over the ruins.<\/p>\n

During the twentieth century, the castle was a military area poorly preserved. Luckily, in 1910, the S\u00e3o Jorge Castle<\/i><\/strong> was classified as a National Monument and, from 1938, great restoration works took place. During this period, remains of the ancient Moors castle and the Royal palace were discovered. <\/p>\n

The motives of this in-depth restructuring of the castle were ideological. Portugal was under a dictatorship<\/a> and the interest of the governors was to exalt the pride of Portugal and to commemorate the eight centuries of the foundation of Portugal! <\/p>\n

Fun fact n\u00ba3: The entrance is free for the residents of Lisbon<\/h4>\n

Then, the entrance is free for children under the age of twelve years old, the person accompanying a person with disabilities and for people that live in Lisbon – however, a proof of residency needs to be presented! The entrance to the S\u00e3o Jorge Castle<\/i><\/strong> is also free for people that live in the national territory, but only on Sundays and holidays between 9 am to 2 pm. <\/p>\n

It is also free for people that possess an APAC<\/i>, APOM<\/i>, ICOM<\/i> or ICOMOS<\/i> card. <\/p>\n

Fun fact n\u00ba4: You can enjoy one of the greatest views over Lisbon<\/h4>\n
