The small town of Tentúgal, about 13 km northeast of Montemor-o-Velho, has an interesting clock tower, which is classified as a Building of Public Interest. It is known to date from the 15th century, but its original purpose and on whose authority it was built are matters of some dispute. The square two storey tower has two clocks and narrows at the top. It has a number of other interesting features including a gothic type door, a gothic window above roof height of the surrounding buildings and a cross on one face.
