The Castle of Alcácer do Sal is a medieval castle located in the civil parish of Alcácer do Sal e Santa Susana, in the municipality of Alcácer do Sal, Portuguese district of Setúbal.
It predominates over the Sado valley, the hilltop on which it was implanted was successively occupied since the 6th century, becoming an important urban and military centre on the Moorish peninsula. The castle was likely constructed in the 12th century, that succeeded various older fortifications. The castle had 20 towers of more than 25 metres and a large keep tower, two gates along the north . Archeological excavations occurring in the 20th century, proved that Alcácer do Sal was constructed during the Almohad Caliphate, during a period of Moorish occupation in the Iberian peninsula.
