The Castle of Evoramonte, alternately spelled Évora Monte or Évoramonte, (Portuguese: Castelo de Évora Monte/Castelo de Evoramonte) is a Portuguese castle in the civil parish of Evoramonte, municipality of Estremoz in the former district of Évora. Initiated in 1160, in the Gothic period, it was enlarged in later centuries in the Manueline style. It was at this site that the Concession of Evoramonte (or the Convention of Evoramonte) on was signed on 26 May 1834, that ended Liberal Wars between the Liberal forces of Queen Maria II of Portugal (under the regency of her father Peter VI of Portugal) and Absolutist armies of Miguel of Portugal.[1] Since 1910, it has been listed as a Portuguese National monument.

The nodes would symbolize the hierarchical position of the House of Bragança in relation to the Royal House. According to Frei Manuel Calado, who wrote about Vila Viçosa in the 19th century. In the 17th century, there was a legend there that said “After you, we”, which meant: after the king, we (the Dukes of Bragança) are the most important in the Kingdom and we will be the kings of Portugal if the king dies without descendants.
