Tholos do Monge: A Hidden Megalith in Portugal’s Sintra Mountains

Come visit the Tholos do Monge, a 4,000-year-old prehistoric tomb perched atop the Sintra Mountains in Portugal. This fascinating megalithic structure, built in the third millennium BC, is a circular chamber with a false dome, constructed from massive granite stones. Once part of a landscape with clear views to the ocean, the site has since been obscured by modern vegetation, but its historical significance remains. Discovered in the 19th century and excavated several times, the Tholos do Monge offers insight into Portugal's ancient past, yet remains unprotected. Join us as we explore its history, stunning location, and the ongoing efforts to preserve this remarkable monument.
