"Myths in Regaleira" is a unique opportunity to walk through Quinta da Regaleira following in the footsteps of Greco-Roman mythology. Gods, heroes, and monsters will be the characters of the two thematic visits prepared by the Clenardus Association and led by Sergio Franclim, author of several books on mythology... Shall we search for Zeus and other gods at Regaleira?
 
Tour 1
AN INITIATIC JOURNEY WITH ORPHEUS
3 JUN and 19 AUG 2023 | 11:00 am
Orpheus, son of Apollo, was a poet and an excellent lyre player. One day, after his beloved wife died, he descended into the Underworld to rescue her from death. With the music he played, Orpheus enchanted Cerberus, the guardian of the Underworld, and thus entered the realm of the dead... Based on this myth, we will explore Quinta da Regaleira, seeking to discover the myth of Orpheus and others from Greco-Roman mythology.
 
Tour 2
A WALK WITH GOD APOLLO
8 JUL and 2 SEP 2023 | 11:00 am
Apollo, god of the Sun, beauty, arts, and prophecy, was one of the most revered gods in antiquity. As soon as he was born, he fought the monster Typhon, and then founded his temple in the city of Delphi. Here, the most famous oracle was born, where all people went to learn about the future. With the mission of finding the god Apollo, we will walk through Quinta da Regaleira, uncovering other gods and myths.
