Castelo dos mouros
Sintra Castle
The fate of Sintra remained associated with that of Lisbon, which would be reconquered by the forces of Afonso VI of León and Castile, to return to Muslim rule in 1095, until it voluntarily and definitively surrendered to D. Afonso I Henriques (1112). -1185) in 1147. Aiming at its repopulation and defense, the sovereign granted a Charter to Sintra in 1154, when he determined repairs to its defenses, providing it with a temple, the Church of São Pedro de Penaferrim.
The Moorish Castle and the cistern are classified as a National Monument by Decree published on June 23, 1910, during the reign of King Manuel II. The intervention of the Portuguese public authorities in the monument began with the Estado Novo in 1939, with the reconstruction of sections of the walls. After minor interventions (1954, 1965), in 1986, cleaning and reconstruction work was carried out on the masonry, steps and battlements in various areas of the castle, with the cleaning of the walls being repeated in a new campaign, in 1992.
The Sintra complex was classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1995.
