The ancient history of the Town Hall of Sintra begins during the Muslim dominion in the Iberian Peninsula. Already mentioned in the eleventh century, the early Moorish palace - property of the Portuguese Crown from the conquest of Lisbon by D. Afonso Henriques (1147), 1st King of Portugal - was first practiced in 1281, during the reign of King Dinis. New constructive bodies are added over time, under the reigns of D. Dinis, D. João I and D. Manuel I, maintaining their silhouette since the middle of the 16th century. Not to miss a visit.
