About Obidos

This storied town boasts a high concentration of well-preserved medieval buildings, the centerpiece being the old fortress, which now houses a luxury hotel (Pousada de Obidos). Points of interest include the Clock Tower, the Municipal Museum, and the glazed ceramic tile work adorning the walls of the keep. For those keen on practicing their swing, the prestigious Praia D'el Rey golf resort is just outside the city. Those seeking more of Obidos' cultural heritage should stick around for the Medieval Market held every year in July for two weeks.
