Castle of MARVÃO
Little is known about when the first peoples settled in the area of Marvão, but Roman forces began to appear in the region, following the strategic road linking it with Cáceres Santarém and bridge over the River Sever. During the early Middle Ages, the Swabians, Visigoths and eventually the Umayyad Arabs began to settle in the area. The construction of the castle at Marvão was attributed to 9th century Islamic knight, Ibn Marwan, who began to dwell in the castle between 876 and 877. By the beginning of the 10th century, the settlement was designated Amaia de Ibn Maruán or, alternately, the fortress of Amaia. Christian forces loyal to King D. Afonso I (1112–1185) conquered the region and town from Moorish forces sometime around 1160 .

Great images, Zé
Our east coast is a wall of flames at present over a huge area.
It is terrifying.
J. Gafarot club has replied to Diana Australis clubPoor country only courage will get you through and I do believe you are reputed to have "some" of it. Hold on my friend.

J. Gafarot club has replied to ╰☆☆June☆☆╮ clubYou know things.
It's a joy for me to follow you on this Portuguese itinerary of yours.I'm taking notes for my next visit to your wonderful country, where alas, I've never been so far.
J. Gafarot club has replied to Beatrice Degan(MARS) clubNowadays I have time and I remember the people who followed me down South sixty years ago and finally I have the time to go and see them and talk of anything for hours and looks and silences and memories. It doesn't matter to ask it again if it was worth it but I like the smell of that land, their cattle, their dogs and their raisins, so I jump into my country which is only half mine.
It is a long story but, for short I am in peace.
It is the last big luxury to me to have my head up.
Scusami la verbosità, it just got out.
