The Torre de Belém, formerly Torre de São Vicente, is a fortification located in Belém, on the right bank of the Tagus River, where Belém beach once existed, it was originally surrounded by water along its entire perimeter. Over the centuries it was surrounded by the beach, until today it became part of dry land. One of the city's ex libris, the monument is an architectural icon of the reign of D. Manuel I. Over time, the tower lost its function of defending the Tagus River and, following the Philippine occupation, the old warehouses gave way to dungeons. On the four floors of the tower, the Governor's Room, the Kings Room, the Audience Room and, finally, the Chapel with its characteristic 16th century vaults remain. The Tower of São Vicente (1514) belongs to a formation defending the Tagus basin ordered to be erected by João II of Portugal, composed to the south by the tower of São Sebastião da Caparica (1481) and to the west by the Tower of Santo António de Cascais ( 1488).
Designed by architect Cottinelli Telmo and sculptor Leopoldo de Almeida, this monument rises more than 50 meters high in front of the Tagus River. Built for the first time in 1940, part of the Portuguese World Exhibition, one of the largest exhibitions organized in Portugal to date. Originally built from perishable materials, it was rebuilt in 1960, on the occasion of the 500th anniversary of the death of Infante D. Henrique – a great driver of the Portuguese Discoveries. Taking the shape of a stylized caravel that sets out to sea, it takes the Infante to the bow, followed by some protagonists of overseas prowess and culture of the time portrayed with symbols that individualize them, namely, navigators, cartographers, warriors, colonizers, evangelizers, chroniclers and artists. In the yard leading to the monument, the Compass Rose immediately stands out, inaugurated on August 5, 1960, designed in the architect's studio. Luís Cristino Silva and offered by the Rep. of South Africa.
