Paula’s Thursday’s Special theme for this week is “Traces of the past”
The Monsaraz Medieval Castle, being built in the late 13th century. Inside the fortress there’s an arena used for bullfighting starting from the year 1830. Today, it serves this purpose mainly during the annual festivities in honour of our Lord Jesus Christ.
