The Templar Castle of Almourol, Portugal. Is a medieval castle in Portugal that was part of the defensive line controlled by the Knights Templar. While historians aren’t sure exactly when this medieval castle was built, they do know it date back to at least 1129. After the Knight Templar disbanded in the 14th century, the castle was left to collect dust. It was revitalized in the 19th century, and remains an important location for events and travel itineraries. The castle is located on an island in the middle of the Tagus river, near the village of Vila Nova da Barquinha, in central Portugal. It is also a landmark of the presence of this military order in the country... #Photography
