Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Castle of Coruche

Highlight • Religious Site

On the hill overlooking the town, where a castle once stood and was the scene of frequent skirmishes between Muslims and Christians during the Reconquista, stands the Chapel of Our Lady of the Castle. According to oral tradition, it was founded by D. Afonso Henriques, and a portrait of this king is preserved there. It has undergone several restorations over the years and today stands gracefully and attractively, with its small temple and tower trimmed in the region's signature blue. From the viewpoint, there is a stunning panorama over the floodplain, a plain stretching as far as the eye can see, where the fields of the Sorraia unfold in shades of green and gold as far as the horizon.

Coruche

Coruche is a peaceful town in Portugal, located between Ribatejo and Alentejo, known for its white traditional houses by the Sorraia River. Surrounded by fertile fields, it's a hub for agriculture, horse breeding, and cork production. The town features historic sites like the Roman-era Ponte da Corôa, a medieval aqueduct, and 17th-century churches. Nearby, the Agolada and Monte da Barca weirs are popular summer recreation spots.

Restaurant "O Moco"

Highlight • Restaurant

Very simple small village restaurant. Very warm and friendly welcome. Very generous cuisine, very well served. I recommend the free-range chicken raised in this same village. The restaurant has a place to keep bicycles.
The region lends itself very well to the practice of road cycling with beautiful roads in the middle of the countryside and with very little car traffic.

"Estou no trabalho" cafe ("I'm at work" cafe!)

Highlight • Cafe

This is a cafe called "Estou no trabalho".

It means "I'm at work".

So, the husband is at the cafe and his wife calls him to find out where he is.

Then, the husband says he's at work. And, which is true!
😂🤪🤣😇
