The estate, located on the outskirts of the village of Borba, in Alentejo, is a property with rich historical and cultural heritage, whose roots stretch back to the seventeenth century. It was built by Pedro de Mello e Castro, a nobleman of the house of the Duke of Braganza who fought in the battle of Alcácer Quibir in 1578. The estate was named in memory of General Dinis de Mello e Castro (1624-1709), who was born here. Hero of the Portuguese Restoration War, he received the title of 1st Count of Galveias for services rendered to the nation at the Battle of Montes Claros in 1665. Part of the family heritage for more than four hundred years, at the beginning of the 20th century, underwent work by the architect Raul Lino, and was one of his first works. Over the years, this estate has preserved the charm and authenticity of Alentejo stately homes. Its history and natural beauty make it an ideal refuge for those seeking tranquillity and comfort in the heart of Alentejo.
