There is a pelourinho in almost every Portuguese city, town and some villages. It is a symbol of the municipal power of the place and criminals were usually tied or chained to it when punished. It is argued that pelourinhos are Roman in origin, as Roman settlements had a pillar for much the same purpose. The marble Pelourinho de Monsaraz is located in the main square, which you will find 100 metres to your left after entering the main gateway into the town.

we enjoyed the walking here and most of all the stunning views over the surroundings.
you cannot imagine the distance you can see from here. It is situated on a small hilltop and via some steep climb up, you reach it.
the white houses and pretty the Streets with the cobble stones nice and the church and caste accordingly.

This was not front and centre and we kind of overlooked it. There seems to be one of these in one form or another in every town in Portugal.

The Pelourinho is located in front of the main church. It is very beautiful and it is even better to see it from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm when cars are prohibited within the city.

We loved the town of Monsaraz tucked overlooking the valleys of Spain & Alentejo. The unique medieval village was one of our highlights in our Portugal trip. I hate even mentioning this little village as not having it as a major tourist attraction made it more attractive,
