Our opinion
Tomar was born as much from water as from stone. The Knights Templar of Gualdim Pais founded the Convent of Christ there in 1160, and over the centuries the banks of the Nabão became dotted with mills, wine presses and gardens. Upstream from the plain where Roman Tomar was established, there is a place with a straightforward name: Fonte Quente, the hot spring. An estate of around 14 hectares stretches down to the river. A 19th-century house stands at its centre, awaiting restoration. A rural tourism project, which has already been approved, plans to add a new wing to the house and turn it into a guesthouse with around fifteen rooms. Other ways of utilising the estate remain possible. The Nabão has powered Tomar’s mills for centuries. Today, it can sustain an estate.
