Who hurled burning oil from Portalegre Castle in a desperate midnight siege? Which secret lover left forbidden poems pressed between the pages at José Régio’s House? What silent code is carved into the stones of the Convent of São Bernardo, overlooked by centuries of monks and spies alike?

Follow twisting trails through shadow and sunlight. Sense the city’s pulse shift as lost voices guide you through drama, intrigue, and wonder in every corner.
