Lonely Planet review for Castelo
What's left of the Castelo is surrounded by a decidedly unwar-like, small and appealing garden. The defence might date back to Neolithic times; it was rebuilt by Phoenicians in the 8th century and later taken over by the Moors. What stands today dates mostly from 17th-century reconstruction. The restored octagonal tower offers fine views over Tavira.
