Sesimbra · SET-006
The castle passed through medieval conflicts. Official visitor information describes a gradual movement of population toward the bay in the fifteenth century. The defensive hilltop and everyday life by the sea consequently followed different rhythms.
Looking toward the bay, consider both defensive advantage and the daily effort of climbing. Straight-line distance to the shore does not describe the walking route.

Dun allows retreat to be understood without equating it with defeat. Movement toward the bay changed life's centre without making the castle worthless. Preservation need not freeze a town: walls can remain while life finds other paths.
