The Castle of Silves stands on the highest point of the hill above Silves and dates largely from the Moorish period between the 8th and 13th centuries. Its walls of red Silves sandstone enclose about 12,000 square metres, with eleven towers linked by a 388-metre wall walk. Inside are a large rectangular cistern and the remains of the governors' palace.
