Portugal

I received this postcard from Portugal a couple of days ago.


This castle has a ton of history...too much to write about here!  A few things I learned are:


  • The Castle of Santa Maria da Feira is a castle in Portugal, situated on a small hilltop overlooking the urban valley of Feira.
  • It is one of the monuments that best reflects the diversity of defenses used during the Middle Ages, having been instrumental in the process of reconquest and autonomy of Portugal.
  • It has been listed as a national monument since 1910.

I want to go there!

By the way, if you'd like more information about collecting international postcards, you can read my original post here.
