This church has a life-size wooden sculpture of Jesus carrying the cross, a wonderful piece of contemporary history.

Mourão Castle is well-preserved and can be visited free of charge. You can climb the castle walls via an adventurous climb (they're dilapidated and completely unsecured). Pacmen64 🇵🇹 isn't right here, although I otherwise greatly appreciate his contributions.

According to various booking platforms, the lavishly restored former monastery now houses a 3-star hotel. During our visit in May 2025, the entire site appeared deserted.

After the castle's military use, the residents of Monsaraz built their own bullring here. Bullfights still occasionally take place here.

Like most Portuguese castles, this one is free to visit. The walls are accessible, offering a great view of the town and the surrounding area. Unfortunately, we weren't able to climb the keep. The old bullring is impressive.
