The inside story
The National Palace of Sintra, also known as the Town Palace, is located right in the heart of Sintra, in the Lisbon district. It is considered the best preserved medieval royal residence in Portugal and was classified as a World Heritage site by UNESCO in 1995. A popular tourist attraction, the National Palace is a must-see if you’re visiting the town of Sintra.
The history of this impressive palace began during the Muslim occupation of the Iberian Peninsula. It was used by the Portuguese royal family continuously until the end of the monarchy, from the early 15th-century through to the late 19th-century. Of all the palaces built by the Portuguese monarchs throughout the Middle Ages, the National Palace of Sintra is the only one that has survived to the present day virtually intact.
