About
King Ferdinand II transformed the ruins of a monastery into this eclectic summer palace in the mid-nineteenth century, mixing Gothic, Manueline and Moorish elements in red and ochre. Its rooms preserve the royal family's furnishings, and the surrounding park is threaded with paths, lakes and exotic trees.
