Is Serpa the most beautiful city in Portugal? of course not! is it worth a visit? of course! because? In reality there are many reasons to make a mandatory stop in the city of Serpa, firstly I think that being in the south of the Alentejo makes its climate highly sought after by Nordic tourists! In summer you can see many people walking through its narrow alleys admiring the medieval architecture, outside the city Serpa has very extensive roads with little traffic which allows you to ride a bicycle for kilometers and kilometers!🚩🧭🙇‍♂️
Es Serpa la ciudad mas bonita de Portugal? claro que no! merece la pena una visita? claro que si! por que? en realidad hay muchos motivos para hacer una parada obligatoria a la ciudad de Serpa, primeramente pienso que al estar al sur del alentejo hace que su clima sea muy buscado por los turistas nordicos! en verano puedes ver muchas personas caminando entre sus callejones angosto admirando la arquitectura medieval, fuera de la ciudad Serpa tiene carreteras muy extensas poco transitadas lo que permite pasear en bicicleta kilometros y kilometros!🌏🚙🏰

Medieval defenses🙇‍♂️🚩/ Defensas medievales🌏😍🚙

That's right, these walls have more than 500 years of history that were built in the 1500th century as protection against the Arabs and later the Spanish, so you have an idea of how strategic the position of Serpa was in the history of the country, the border of Spain is less than 50km from the city, therefore for centuries it was important to protect the spaces because it was an excellent strategic point of conquest by the enemies of Portugal, for years archaeologists have discovered many war artifacts within the walls which indicates that There were many wars in Serpa.🧭🚩👨‍🏫
Asi es mas de 500 años de historia tienen estos muros que fueron alzados en el siglo 1500 como proteccion contra los arabes y posteriormente los Españoles, para que tengas una idea de lo estrategica que era la posicion de Serpa en la historia del pais la frontera de España esta a menos de 50km desde la ciudad, por tanto por siglos fue importante proteger los espacios porque era un excelente punto estrategico de conquista de los enemigos de Portugal, durante años los arqueologos han descubierto muchos artefactos belicos dentro de las murallas lo que indica que hubieron muchas guerras en Serpa.🏰🏰

Wall opening mechanism🚙🙇‍♂️

I have never seen the mechanism that was used to open the enormous entrance door to the castle in such good condition and here you see in the photo more or less how it worked, it was like a wooden pulley system, this mechanism is more than 600 years old. reinforced in the 16th century and today it is 100% original, in the other photo you can see the wall as it passes between the houses!👀🧭

Nunca habia visto en tan buen estado el mecanismo que se empleaba para abrir la enorme puerta de la entrada del castillo y aqui ves en la foto mas o menos como funcionaba era como un sistema de polea de madera, este mecanismo tiene mas de 600 años fue reforzado en el siglo 16 y hoy en dia es 100% original, en la otra foto puedes ver la muralla como pasa entre las casas!👀🚩

I will not dedicate much information about the Serpa castle because this beautiful structure deserves an exclusive post for it since it has some curious facts such as the wall but to give you an idea it is small and is positioned to give the warriors a 360 degree view, Inside there is a museum with things found inside the castle!🏰🏰
Sobre el castillo de Serpa no dedicare mucha informacion porque esta hermosa estructura merece un post exclusivo para el ya que tiene algunos datos curiosos como la muralla pero para que tengas una idea es pequeño y esta posicionado para dar a los guerreros una vista de 360 grados, dentro hay un museo con cosas encontradas dentro del castillo!🌏🧔

The aqueduct🙇‍♂️🚩/ El acueducto🌏😍🚙

I can't find any information about the aquaduct. It was probably built along with the wall, so I would say that it belongs more to the medieval than Romanesque era. I would say that it dates back to the 16th century. It was integrated into the wall and supplied water within the city. Previously, there were no houses. On the outskirts of the castle only those who were dedicated to agriculture, when there was a warning of war everyone entered inside the walls and closed the doors! the walls were destroyed several times.🏰👨‍🏫
No consigo informacion sobre el acuaducto probablemente fue construido junto con la muralla por eso diria que pertenece mas a la era medieval que romanica, diria que del siglo XVI, estaba integrada a la muralla y suministraba agua a dentro de la ciudad, anteriormente no habian casas en las afueras del castillo solo aquellos que se dedicaban a la agricultura, cuando habia un aviso de guerra todos entraban dentro de las murallas y cerraban las puertas! las murallas fueron destruidas varias veces.🚩🧭
