The Castle of Evoramonte, alternately spelled Évora Monte or Évoramonte, is a Portuguese castle in the civil parish of Evoramonte, municipality of Estremoz in the former district of Évora. Initiated in 1160, in the Gothic period, it was enlarged in later centuries in the Manueline style. It was at this site that the Concession of Evoramonte on was signed on 26 May 1834, that ended Liberal Wars between the Liberal forces of Queen Maria II of Portugal and Absolutist armies of Miguel of Portugal. Since 1910, it has been listed as a Portuguese National monument.
