Alcoutim was reconquered during the reign of King Sancho II in 1240. The town of Alcoutim was not repopulated until the reign of King Dinis, who granted it a charter in 1304 and granted it to the Military Order of Sant'Iago (Saint James). Beautiful Castle including Museum. ALCOUTIM: Foi conquistada pelos cristaos no reinado de D. Sancho II, em 1240, sendo, entao, construido o castelo. Aqui se assinou a paz de 31 de Marco de 1371 com Castela, mas, em breve D. Fernando voltaria à guerra com o reino vizinho. Obras recentes desobstruíram a porta nascente, com vista para a vila e para o Rio Guadiana. A porta norte mantém, aproximada- mente, as características primitivas. Um baluarte do século XVII, em vez de ter artilharia, tem flores, constituindo um jardim em socalcos. Um museu etnografico foi, também, instalado no recinto fortificado, sobre as gentes e os habitos da terra. Daqui se contempla soberbo panorama sobre o rio, com a povoacao andaluza de San Lucar, igualmente fortificada, na outra margen.

Roman Baesuris, now Castro Marim, with a huge Castle, the first headquarters of the Order of Christ before its transfer to Tomar. ----------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------------- ***CASTRO MARIM*** A gravura do Livro das Fortalezas, de Duarte de Armas, mostra que, no século XVI, um esteiro ainda chegava ao sopé da muralha de Castro Marim e aì havia um cais. Hoje, a vila está 6 km afastada do mar e já nao è banhada directamente pelo Guadiana. Ocupada em 1242 pela Ordem de Santiago, os estrategos Portugueses nunca mais perderam de vista o seu valor defensivo, perto do mar e de um troco navegável do Guadiana. A muralha que chegou aos nossos dias rodeia o topo da colina, delimitando um recinto de hectare e meio. Diversas canhoneiras testemunham a adaptacao do castelo medieval à artilharia. D. Joao IV mandou refazer e melhorar as muralhas antigas mas mandou também erguer um novo forte, o de Sao Sebastiao, na colina fronteira. Adaptado ao uso da artilharia e de perfil baixo, ainda hoje permanece, pronto para o combate. 12.03.2016. --------------------------------------------------------------- *The Mighty Fortresses(Castelo) dominates the small town of Castro Marim(Baesuris). Inside the walls we can find the ruins of Igreja de Santiago, where Prince Henry the Navigator(Infante Dom Henrique) has prayed. ----------------------------------------------------------------
