Hidden near the historic center of Sintra, Fonte da Sabuga is a quiet and charming corner. Dating back to the 17th century, it is known for its fresh and mineral-rich water. According to local tradition, water would have healing properties, especially for eye problems, and many came to drink or wash their eyes here. Surrounded by vegetation and located on a quiet path towards the old village, the fountain offers a relaxing break. For its history, legends or simply as a moment of rest, the Sabuga Fountain is a small, but special, treasure of Sintra.
