Casa da Cereja (Cherry House) was born from the reconversion of the old Primary School of Alcongosta and is proud to be a museum, inclusive and open to everyone to learn and discover more about the "red gold" of Serra da Gardunha.

The ruins of this old church impress by their beauty and landscape.

It is estimated that it was built by order of D. Sancho I in the 12th century, but it underwent many changes, the most notable being the construction of panoramic windows, one of them in Manueline style, and bastions in the years when it had a military function. With so many changes, the construction of Belmonte Castle integrates an unusual miscellany of architectural styles - Romanesque, Gothic, Manueline, and 18th century traces. Currently, the building has tourist and cultural functions, an open-air amphitheater was built and the Keep and 19th-century room were adapted to museum spaces dedicated to the history of the County and the Castle.
