Built in opulent Baroque style, the palace features twin bell towers flanking a central dome, richly decorated façades, and over 1,200 rooms. Highlights include the Basilica of Mafra, adorned with marble altars and Italian-made sculptures, and the Royal Library, one of Europe’s finest 18th‑century libraries, with its exquisite wood-paneled galleries and priceless manuscript collection.

In 2019, it was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, recognized for its architectural splendor and its role in European cultural history.
