The town is pleasing and there's a good museum in the main street but bragança's main claim to fame lies in the Cidadela, virtually a separate village above the town and one with a distinctly medieval flavour. There are three particular sights here.
Torre de Menagem - the massive keep of a castle belonging to the Dukes of Bragança, the last Portuguese royal family, but not their principal residence, which was at Guimarães. Torre de Menagem
Domus Municipalis - a pentagonal lay building - probably an 11th century council chamber. Domus Municipalis
a preaching cross rising from the back of a prehistoric pig outside the castle.
