Despite its age and several earthquakes Silves castle
remains substantially intact and is well worth a visit.
Opening hours:
9.00 - 17.00 / 20.00 [summer]
You can walk all around the rampart and enjoy
spectacular views of Silves and the mountains behind.
Excavations are still carried out.
The old water cistern pictured below has
been turned into a small museum for which a separate entry fee is charged. From March 2nd
till November 4th 2001 the theme is "old toy's" from around the world.
