The Knights Templar castle in Tomar, Portugal, is a remarkable historical site, reflecting the Order's significant role during the Reconquista and its architectural innovations. Founded in the 12th century, the castle served as a strategic stronghold against the Moors and later housed the Order of Christ, the Templars' successors in Portugal. The Convent of Christ, with its Charola, or round chapel, showcases the fusion of Romanesque, Gothic, and Manueline architectural styles, symbolizing the Order's religious and cultural influence. This UNESCO World Heritage site continues to captivate visitors with its grandeur and the mysteries surrounding the legendary Knights Templar.
