Oliveira do Hospital Portugal

Oliveira do Hospital is one of the most beautiful municipalities in the district of Coimbra and Serra da Estrela. Here the visitor is faced with amazing portraits and enchanted havens. Traces that go back to Prehistory and many other registers built throughout the county reflect the greatness of this region. The current county seat is born at the time of the 2nd Crusade, when a hospital is founded in St. John of Jerusalem in the Holy Land. It will welcome pilgrims who are sick, crippled and victims of attacks and robberies, in such a long walk that it would take them along of the Holy Sepulcher.
