About
The Royal Palace of Almeirim (Portuguese: Paço Real de Almeirim) was a residence of the Portuguese royal family in Almeirim, Portugal. It was constructed in the Middle Ages and expanded in the 16th century. It was a favoured residence to spend the winter times, contrary to Sintra in the summer. After being heavily damaged by the 1755 Lisbon earthquake, it was demolished in the 19th century.
