Points forts

Itinéraire

1. 1

   The Pegões Aqueduct is undoubtedly a must-see on a Templar itinerary in the Middle Tagus : for its monumentality, its surroundings, and for being the perfect spot to watch the sunset. At the Superstar of the vault of the access tower, we can see the engraved Cross of the Order of Christ and the first sketches of the project, which date back to the 16th century and were designed by Filippo Terzi, also the master builder of the Convent of Christ.

   It is one of the largest and most imposing Portuguese aqueducts, and the connection between the two monuments is unavoidable, as the approximately 6 - kilometer construction, built in the 16th and 17th centuries, was intended to supply water to the Convent
