We really had awful weather (storm) but even with the rain I can say it's worth to see! Beautiful place, thanks to the storm we were alone there we had time to see everything 😅 Amazing oranges, beautiful sculptures and fountains make a great atmosphere... 3€ for entrance is ok price.

Great place to spend a day with the kids. Pool is large enough to have a good workout swimming or walking . Grass areas, plenty of shade, sandbox and chairs. Locker rooms have storage areas and showers all very clean . Cafeteria provides good food selection, ice cream and drinks. Anytime we visit family in Castelo Branco we spend a day here.

An interesting collection of the works of the contemporary artist Manuel Cargaleiro, including ceramics and painting. The museum is constituted of two buildings, historic and contemporary. In the historic building mainly exhibits the ceramics, divided in to different rooms based on the patterns. Besides, the library and the shop are also in this building. Meawhile, the contemporary building hosts the artist's paintings, contemporary ceramics. The museum is open Tuesday to Sunday 10AM–1PM, 2–6PM. (The historic building dates back to the 18th century and it was named "Solar dos Cavaleiros". This building was a place to shelter lonely women with rough life stories and also for unwanted children. There is the remaining of a window at the reception of the museum where in the past the parents of the unwanted child used to leave their baby and a person from inside the house will take the baby. the structure of that window was designed in a way that people from the inside would not see the person who left the baby, to protect their identity)

Beautiful building,spacious. Love architecture. At this time of the year there was very few artworks but I enjoyed my time here.

The museum used to be the residence of the bishops in the 18th century and is connected to the Garden of the Episcopal Palace. The first part of the museum exhibits the archeological excavations which dates back to the 16th century. The rest of the exhibition is mainly dedicated to the examples of embroidery created in Castelo Branco, including carpets, dresses and other types of artifacts. In a few of the rooms there are paintings with religious themes as well as the portraits of bishops. The staff were super friendly and would gladly explain any question about the museum, if asked. Opening time: Tuesday to Sunday from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm and from 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm. Entrance: €3, and for students and seniors €1.5

Free access. Beautiful sunset. Walked up from our Airbnb by foot. Could drive but very narrow streets will almost literally take you through people’s living rooms.

Nice cross, nothing too cool, still worth going to.

(Translated by Google) |The Clock Tower is an essential element of the Castelo Branco landscape, visible from several locations. Its origin is linked to the city's expansion process and, consequently, to the extension of the city wall's limits, since its location coincides with an old tower of the outer wall, adapted for its current functions during the 19th century. For the people of Castelo Branco and many visitors, the Clock Tower has - or gains - the identity of the capital city of Beira Baixa, which is why the Castelo Branco City Council recently promoted works to consolidate and preserve the structure. Its constant visual presence in the daily lives of the people of Castelo Branco and its characteristic hourly chimes are an indispensable companion not only for the residents of the city's Historic Area, but for all city residents and visitors who, when the bells ring, are easily transported to times gone by and, certainly, more nostalgic. (Original) |A Torre do Relógio é um elemento incontornável da paisagem albicastrense, visível de vários locais. A sua origem está ligada ao processo de expansão da cidade e, consequentemente, ao alargamento dos limites da Muralha, uma vez que a sua localização coincide com uma antiga torre da muralha exterior, adaptada para as atuais funções durante o século XIX. Para os albicastrenses e para muitos visitantes a Torre do Relógio tem - ou ganha - o carácter identitário da cidade Capital da Beira Baixa, razão que levou a Câmara Municipal de Castelo Branco a promover, recentemente, obras de consolidação e conservação da estrutura. A constante presença visual no quotidiano dos albicastrenses e os característicos toques horários são uma companhia indispensável não só para os moradores da Zona Histórica da Cidade, mas para todos os moradores da cidade ou dos visitantes que, ao bater das badaladas dos sinos, facilmente se deixam transportar para tempos idos e, seguramente, mais nostálgicos|.

(Translated by Google) Because there is mass every day at a good 9:30 am and there is almost always a priest willing to help anyone seeking reconciliation with God! (Original) Porque tem todos os dias missa a uma boa h 9:30 e há quase sempre algum sacerdote disposto para a atender alguém que procure a reconciliação com Deus!
