The Cerro da Inês Park is located in the locality of Vergeira, within the municipality of Santiago do Cacém. Its elevated position offers a distinctive scenery in the surrounding landscape, allowing visitors to observe the area from a privileged vantage point.

A Privileged Observation Point

In the Cerro da Inês Park, a building stands out as a viewpoint, providing a panoramic view over Santiago do Cacém and its vast surroundings. From the highest point of this structure, it is possible to contemplate the expanse of the landscape, from the closest details to the horizon. Access to the summit is facilitated by an elevator, making this observation experience accessible to all visitors to the park.

History and Design of the Building

The central construction of the Cerro da Inês Park has a particular history. Initially conceived to function as a water reservoir, its architectural project aimed to include a space for public enjoyment at the top. Although the original idea of a food and beverage area did not materialize due to subsequent legislative changes, the building maintains its purpose as a landscape observation landmark, enriching the visit to the site with a touch of its past.
