The “Charola of the Convento de Cristo (c. 1160 - c. 1250)” is a religious building. The Charola (or Rotunda) is an integral part of the historical complex called “The Convento de Cristo” which has been classified as a National Monument, and this in the year 1910, and as a World Heritage Site, in the year 1983. The date of its construction dates back to the castle's origins (c. 1160) and is closely linked to the early days of the kingdom of Portugal and to the Order of the Templars, having been internally reconfigured in the 16th century. It is representing an confluence of Romanesque and Gothic styles, integrating Manueline decoration and an important set of 16th century paintings and sculptures. It served as a private oratory for the Knights Templar and later became a chancel for the church built during the reign of King Manuel I.

In order to see as much as possible of this extraordinary architectural and historical jewel you should allow a minimum of two hours. Just when you think you have explored every open room...wait! There is still more to see and marvel at. Don't be afraid to peek behind curtains and venture up small staircases.....

From the first moment you arrive in Tomar, Hold on to your hat, you are in for an experience of a lifetime. The Town of Tomar is a myriad of sweet smelling small passages, streets and squares, cafe's, shops, and small restaurants and eateries to cater to every taste. The food is authentic and delicious....be prepared to gain a few pounds in weight. The Old Town of Tomar is steeped in history, and the best way to see this is a guided tour in a Tuk Tuk., its like a magical mystery tour and the drivers/tour guides are fluent in English, French and German. The Templar Castle and the Convent of Christ is the Icing on a very big cake. Go and be amazed. I will leave it at that.

This park, one of many beautiful green spaces in the city of Tomar, is exquisite. You can, if you wish, walk all the way up to the Convent on various pathways. If you do go to the park, you walk beneath old and pine trees and are surrounded by terraces, flowers galore, hedges, fountains and urns. A very beautiful and peaceful spot to sit a reflect for minutes, or hours, before setting out to sightsee again. It is certainly one of the most beautiful parks we visited on our trip. There is no admission charge as it is open to the public without charge.

Almost in front of the entrance of the raíl station you will see this museum. The access is free of charge. Inside there is a huge legacy of boxes, all times, all styles from countries around the world. Amazing & amusing
