Take a trip to Pena National Palace on your Portugal Vacation
Pena Palace, nestled in São Pedro de Penaferrim on the Portuguese Riviera, is a captivating Romanticist castle that shines as the crown jewel of the Sintra Hills. Surrounded by a park that mirrors its aura, the palace invites exploration and sparks feelings of wonder and intrigue. Pena Palace, initially constructed on the land of a former monastery owned by the Order of St. Jerome, was conceived by Dom Fernando. As he married to Queen Dona Maria II in 1836, he fell in love with the enchanting beauty of Sintra. He purchased the monastery and its nearby lands to build a summer retreat for the royal family.
To visit Pena Palace, it's important to note that visitor numbers inside the palace are restricted for safety and a pleasant experience. Entry is granted via a time slot ticket, allowing a 30-minute window to access the palace building.
