About Torres Vedras
Torres Vedras is a historic town north of Lisbon, famous for the Lines of Torres Vedras — the network of forts built by Wellington during the Peninsular War to halt Napoleon's advance on Lisbon in 1810. The medieval castle and the Leonel Trindade Municipal Museum tell the story of the region's strategic importance. On the coast, Santa Cruz is a popular surf beach backed by dramatic cliffs, and the Carnival of Torres Vedras is one of the most traditional and irreverent in Portugal, attracting thousands of visitors every year.
