The nearby Rossio train station is famous for its architecture

Think Big! 

Just a few meters from the Torre de Belem is the largest wind rose in the world, reminiscent of the seafaring conquests of Portugal.

Auf zu neuen Ufern! 

In the immediate vicinity of the Hieronimus monastery, right on the banks of the river, is the Torre de Belem, which also belongs to the world heritage site. Once the first outpost for the protection of Lisbon and the starting point for the explorers of the world’s oceans.

Dedicated to the discoverers!

The unique Jerónimos, architectural masterpiece of the Portuguese Manuelinic, was declared a world cultural heritage in 1983 and is a must for every visitor to Lisbon. Here to find, lushly decorated with filigree craftsmanship, is an impressive monastery church and also the tomb of the famous discoverer Vasco da Gama.

Òla Lisboa! 

Due to the central location to the train station, metro station and taxi, our old town apartments are ideal locations to easily explore the surrounding area of Lisbon. From a distance you can see the landmark of Lisbon, the Cristo-Rei, whose image is also watched on the Sugar Loaf of Rio de Janeiro. The red bridge Ponte 25. Abril reminds us especially of the nonviolent Revolution of 1974. On the underlying docks you will find many restaurants, trendy discos and bars.

Our tip:

Also worth a visit – the fairytale castles of the historic town of Sintra and a stop in the fashionable coastal town of Cascais is worthwhile. You do not need a rental car. Cascais and Sintra are easy to reach in 45min. by train. Departure: Rossio station.
