Reviews
Located on the south coast of Peniche, in the slopes between the fishing port to the east and the Furninha grotto to the west. There's not much to see but the views of the ocean are stunning, some of the history is very interesting and the colours are quite pretty. A good place to see the sunset.
This is a very interesting place. Some of the details about Portugal under Salazar come out brilliantly here. Well worth the visit.
Great views and a small beach (cala) near the entrance! It is free to enter and see the sights inside, and they have public bathrooms.
Incredible piece of Portuguese history, and even free admission! Stunning views across the harbour/ocean.
Staff were incredibly helpful and friendly.
Be sure to visit the former prison for political prisoners and also the chapel on site.
The Peniche Fortress was builted on the site of the former Castle of Atouguia da Baleia, of which only a few vestiges remain, initial construction took place in 1557 and 1558 but there have been numerous subsequent modifications. Its defensive walls surround an area of two hectares, divided into upper and lower parts. The fortress has served a number of functions including that of a political prison during the authoritarian Estado Novo regime.
