Beautiful Castle of San Giorgio, I was struck by how it has been maintained until today it has remained intact and inside they made us a very special restaurant that I will go to try soon. Today it was all booked, but I will gladly return. I also recommend you to visit the village is very nice and characteristic and then you can taste very good typical things of the area. Stop for a Sunday dedicated to historical and artistic discovery and immersed in nature.

Abbiamo celebrato nella location del feudo di San Giorio il nostro matrimonio questo giugno 2022.è un ambiente molto suggestivo ed i nostri ospiti ne sono stati stregati. Consiglio vivamente sia per la particolarità dell ambiente , che per l empatia che si è creata con i gestori che sono stati molto disponibili e gentili nel consigliarci ,ascoltando ed esaudendo i nostri desideri e contribuendo a dare vita ad un ricevimento perfetto .

Very suggestive place. Inside a restaurant open from Wednesday to Sunday. Very kind and helpful staff. I recommend to go up on foot, leaving the car in the town below.

Sé Catedral (Cathedral of Lisbon)

The Cathedral of Saint Mary Major, often called Lisbon Cathedral or simply the Sé, is a Roman Catholic cathedral located in Lisbon, Portugal. The oldest church in the city, it is the seat of the Patriarchate of Lisbon. The cathedral has survived many earthquakes and has been modified, renovated and restored several times. It is nowadays a mix of different architectural styles. 

The site where it stands was the principal mosque of Lisbon when it was an Arab settlement. The construction of the cathedral started around 1150, three years after the city was conquered from the Moors during the Second Crusade. Shortly after the victory the English knight Gilbert of Hastings was named bishop of the city of Lisbon.

One good reason to visit the Cathedral is to visit its charming cloisters located in the back. There are several tombs in the cathedral, the most notable of which is the beautifully sculpted tomb of Lopo Fernandes Pacheco and his wife.
