Sortelha

The Biosphere Certified label is awarded after verifying that sustainable practices are being implemented correctly. This is a guarantee that the organisation is complying with the commitments it has made.

Sortelha is one of the most beautiful and ancient Portuguese villages, having maintained its urban and architectural fisionomy to the present day, and is considered one of the best preserved. The visit through the streets and alleys of the agglomerate, enclosed by a defensive ring and guarded by the 13th century castle, allows the visitor to go back to past centuries, among the medieval tombs, next to the Manueline pillory or in front of the Renaissance church.
