The Castle was rebuild after it was decided to abandon plans to built a fortress ( a former Roman Castrum ). It was ,at the time ,one the biggest defensive fortification ever built on Portuguese territory ,indicating not only the size of the project but also the importance of the Order of the Temple .(Founded in Jerusalem in 1118 by Hugues de Payens ,a cousin of St. Bernard of Clairvaux ,with Godefroi de St. Omer .)

Il Castello fu ricostruito dopo che fu deciso di abbandonare il piano per costruire la Rocca ( a forma di Castro Romano ).
Esso fu nello stesso tempo la più grande fortificazione difensiva in territorio Portoghese , ma aumentò l'importanza dell'Ordine del Tempio ( Fondato a Gerusalemmme nel 1118 da Ugo di Payens ,un cugino di S. Bernardo di Clairvaux con Goffredo di S. Omer )
