It is known for its embroidered quilts, its baroque garden and its Templar origins, and it makes a good base for exploring the historic villages and natural parks of the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">History and identity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The city grew up around a castle founded by the Knights Templar in the thirteenth century, and its name \u2014 White Castle \u2014 recalls the pale granite of its walls. In later centuries it became an administrative and religious centre, with a cathedral and a bishop&#8217;s palace whose gardens are among its finest monuments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to see and do<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The historic centre, with the old walls and the cathedral.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The <a href=\"https:\/\/realdreams.pt\/zh\/attractions-to-visit\/regions-of-portugal\/center-of-portugal\/jardim-do-paco-episcopal\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Jardim do Pa\u00e7o Episcopal<\/a>, a baroque garden with statues and azulejo.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The national museum of Francisco Tavares Proen\u00e7a J\u00fanior, with its embroidered quilts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Barrocal Park, with its granite landscapes and walking trails.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gastronomy and traditions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Castelo Branco is famous for its embroidery \u2014 the colchas de Castelo Branco, worked in silk on linen \u2014 and for its regional cheeses and sweets.
