Had a great time and enjoyed the castle. Was easy to order. If I had a criticism it took about an hour for the tickets to come through from the time we ordered them, our group felt that was a bit long for an online order. Usually tickets are immediately sent when ordered on line. Otherwise was a good experience.

The purchase was smooth and fast but beware that after purchase you might need to wait 2 hours before you get ticket. In my case i got them within 15 minutes. But the automatic email says it might be delivered in 2h.

Castelo de São Jorge is an absolutely beautiful and historic castle that offers some of the most breathtaking views of Lisbon. Walking along the ancient castle walls and exploring its rich history was an unforgettable experience. The views of the red rooftops, Alfama, and the Tagus River are simply spectacular. We loved all the peacocks that roam the castle as well! A perfect place to take photos, learn about Portugal’s history, and enjoy the beauty of Lisbon. Highly recommend visiting this incredible landmark — definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Portugal!

Easy to buy tickets and find entrance! We absolutely loved visiting São Jorge Castle! The views over Lisbon were incredible and honestly worth the visit alone. We had so much fun walking around the castle walls, exploring the different areas, and taking in all of the history. It was one of those places that really made us feel like we were experiencing Lisbon rather than just sightseeing. Such a beautiful spot and definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

I thought I'd have trouble with my tickets, but everything went very quickly and smoothly—we didn't have to wait in line at all, and we were able to enter this magical place as soon as we bought our tickets.

Step into the breathtaking 2,000+ year-old São Jorge Castle that towers over Lisbon’s skyline, offering views of the entire city below it.

Climb up a 50-step spiral staircase in the castle’s church that leads to the most spectacular views of Lisbon’s city center and the River Tagus.

Inside the old church lies an exhibition that houses rare artifacts and stories, bringing centuries of castle life to light.

Unwind with a complimentary drink—wine, cava, beer, or a soft drink—while taking in the panoramic views and reliving your favorite moments from the visit.

No waiting in line, beautiful view of the entire city :) You can explore the whole castle and all of its towers. Unfortunately, the museum was closed due to renovations.

A single ticket that grants you entry to both the São Jorge Castle and the Tower of São Jorge Castle Church, giving you a deep dive into the history of two key Portuguese landmarks.

Getting started

Show your ticket at the castle entrance to enter the attraction before you begin exploring the wonders of its architecture.

What to expect

São Jorge Castle

Explore this two-millennium-old castle that’s served as a royal palace, a military barracks, and even as the home to the Royal Archives at different points.

Features

Camera Obscura: Housed inside the Ulysses Tower, the Camera Obscura is a fascinating periscope that uses lenses and mirrors to project a 360-degree view of Lisbon onto a viewing dish.

The castle walls and towers: Walk along the various walls around the castle’s perimeter, offering panoramic views of the surrounding hills and beyond.

Tower of São Jorge Castle Church

Make your way to the bell tower entrance, where your ticket will be validated. Climb up a 50-step spiral staircase to savor the spectacular views of the River Tagus & the entirety of Lisbon’s cityscape, along with the exhibition at the church.

Features

An intimate exhibition space: Located inside the church, check out key archaeological artefacts and informative displays about its history.

Panoramic views: Get a panoramic, birds-eye view of Lisbon from the tower’s summit.

Free drink: Enjoy a free drink of your choice (wine, cava, beer, or a soft drink) as you savor the views from the tower.

What to bring

São Jorge Castle

Wear sturdy walking shoes as you’ll encounter uneven terrain across the castle.

Keep a hat and sunscreen handy if you’re visiting during the warmer months.

Tower of São Jorge Castle Church

A pair of comfortable and sturdy walking shoes is a must as you’ll have to climb stairs.

Carry a hat, sunscreen, and adequate water if you’re visiting during the summer.

Large bags and suitcases are not permitted in the tower.

Smoking is prohibited in the church and in the areas around it for safety and preservation.

Accessibility

São Jorge Castle

Visitors with limited mobility could find the climb to the top physically challenging.

Additional information

São Jorge Castle

Ticket holders can visit anytime between the castle’s opening hours (between 9am and 6pm).
