Mitos Gregos com Camões returns to Quinta da Regaleira
The event is part of a 2026 series of mythological tours organised by the Associação Clenardus. The scheduled dates include 18 April, 9 May, 6 June, 4 July, 1 August, 5 September and 10 October 2026. The final listed session gives visitors a fixed cultural event at the Sintra estate during October.
The official programme describes a route through Greco-Roman mythology linked with the work of Luís Vaz de Camões. The official programme for 10 October identifies the venue as Quinta da Regaleira and gives the start time as 11am. The visit is available only in Portuguese and is recommended for visitors aged 12 and over.
How the October tour fits the Sintra estate
The estate stands at the outskirts of Sintra’s historic centre in Portugal. Its buildings and gardens were designed and built with the involvement of António Augusto de Carvalho Monteiro and the Italian architect and scenographer Luigi Manini. The ensemble brings together Manueline, Renaissance, medieval and classical influences.
Construction of the present complex took place between 1898 and 1910, according to Visit Lisboa’s monument profile. The October tour therefore places a contemporary literary and mythological programme inside a landscape shaped at the turn of the twentieth century. The estate includes the palace, chapel, gardens, lakes, caves and other built features associated with its eclectic design.
Quinta da Regaleira forms part of Sintra’s Cultural Landscape, classified by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Its official address is Quinta da Regaleira, 9, 2710-567 Sintra, Portugal, and the custodian’s information identifies the Cultursintra Foundation.
