The Rio Frio Palace was built in the early 20th century, in a privileged location near Montijo, Alcochete, and the banks of the Tagus River. Once, the property, covering approximately 17,000 hectares, was considered one of the largest estates in the country, primarily producing wine. In subsequent generations, the estate was inherited by a nephew of José Maria dos Santos, Alfredo Santos Jorge, who commissioned the construction of the Rio Frio Palace. Dona Maria de Lourdes Pereira Lupi d'Orey, the current owner of the Rio Frio Palace and great-niece of Alfredo Santos Jorge, recalls the magic of life on the estate.

From a large family deeply connected to the countryside and agriculture, her brother José Samuel Lupi stands out as a bullfighting figure. The house offers elegant décor, with a magnificent collection of tiles by Jorge Colaço. It offers an enchanting journey through the gardens and woods, providing a unique experience.

Esteval Windmill, or the Old Mill

Highlight • Monument

The Esteval Windmill or Moinho Velho is located in the municipality of Montijo. It was built in 1826, as can be seen from the date on the inside, and was part of a large agricultural property called Quinta do Moinho Velho. This mill is an emblematic example of the mills known as those from the South of Portugal, with a fixed tower in stone masonry and a rotating hood by means of an internal windlass. It is a living testimony to the flouring processes that were once used. It ceased to function at the beginning of the 20th century after 75 years of operation, and its reconstruction was promoted by the Local Authority according to the guidelines of the Portuguese International Section of Millology. The architectural structure did not undergo significant changes, however the wind collection system and the grinding apparatus were replaced. The mill maintains the traditional grinding system in operation. It opened in 2000. (Source: Wikipedia)
