As you step into the heart of Albufeira’s Old Town, a captivating journey through time unfolds before your eyes. Begin your exploration on Bateria Street, where the imposing Vila Gate, a remnant of the 13th-century medieval castle, bears witness to centuries of history. Lose yourself in the narrow alleys, where remnants of the ancient castle reveal themselves at the intersection of Joaquim Pedro Samora Street and Henrique Calado Street, providing an authentic glimpse into the characteristic architecture of whitewashed houses.

The historic centre of Albufeira is home to iconic landmarks, such as the imposing Clock Tower on Beco Bernardino de Sousa Street. Don’t miss exploring the fascinating Municipal Archaeology Museum, located in Republic Square, in front of the Clock Tower, showcasing treasures from prehistoric, Roman, Islamic, and modern times.

Immerse yourself in the sacred atmosphere by visiting the Church of São Sebastião, in Miguel Bombarda Square, whose baroque facade and interior adorned with a remarkable 18th-century wooden altarpiece enchant visitors. Not far away, the Museum of Sacred Art, also in the church, houses sacred works from the parish of Albufeira.

Wander through picturesque streets like 5th October Street, filled with charming shops and Portuguese cobblestone pavements. Ascend to the Pau da Bandeira Viewpoint, on Sacadura Cabral Street, to enjoy a breathtaking sunset over the sea and the city.
