O castelo e as muralhas de Óbidos

The village of Óbidos keeps centuries of history between its walls.

Óbidos is a medieval walled town (vila) of around 3,100 inhabitants in the district of Leiria, Portugal. It is the seat of the municipality of the same name.

The name of the town derives from the Latin term oppidum, meaning "citadel", or "fortified city". The area was taken from the Moors in 1148, and the town received its first charter in 1195, under the reign of Sancho I.

A vila de Óbidos guarda séculos de história entre as suas muralhas. Com um vasto património de arquitectura religiosa e vestígios histórico-monumentais.
