BRAGANCA, CASTELO PORTUGAL JUST AMAZING(PART 17)

So we're getting closer, and closer to the end of our tour of Portugal, and this video is from our time exploring Bragança, a city whose old castle still maintains a mediaeval urban core within its walls.

Entering the citadel or the bailey by the Porta da Vila, you will find yourself at the Pelourinho (Pillory), standing on a Lusitanian hog that recalls the Celtic origins of the region. In the massive Keep, which in the Middle Ages guarded the borders, the military museum also tells the history of the castle, built by King João I on the foundations of the earlier fortress that the 1st King of Portugal, Afonso Henriques, had built. From the top of the castle, you can enjoy an excellent view over the city and the vast outline of the mountains that surround it. You will also discover the Church of Santa Maria within the citadel, and the Domus Municipalis, the only example of civic Romanesque architecture in Portugal, where the city senate would meet.

If you don’t know us already, we're Helen, Andy and our self built glampervan Giovanna. We transformed from her from an empty panel van into our tiny home on wheels. Inspired by a love of travel, we make videos as we travel the world experiencing new countries and cultures. So why not join us on our vanlife adventures.
