The Belém Tower, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of Lisbon’s most striking monuments and an icon of a country surrounded by the ocean and the River Tagus. In fact, from the tower you’ll enjoy incredible views, perfect for taking some memorable photos.

The discoveries made by Portuguese navigators turned Lisbon into the world’s leading commercial centre in the 15th and 16th centuries. To protect the city, King João II conceived this project to defend Lisbon from enemy ships; the work was completed in 1514 and included the construction of the Belém Tower, designed by the architect Francisco de Arruda.

The tower’s unique design features a modern, heavily fortified bastion jutting out over the river. King Manuel I wished for the Belém Tower to be an enduring symbol of his powerful reign, featuring the royal coat of arms, the armillary sphere and the cross of the Order of Christ.
