The courtyard of the Gonçalva is situated to the western side of the Castrum. Taking on a square floor plan, it is surrounded by arched verandas with the exception of its western face. The western face of the patio is where the wall that connects the Tower of the Lions and Carapirino's Tower is found, and also through which the Gardens of the Pienduccos can be accessed. The patio is centred by a water fountain which sits in-between two ponds. | The courtyard of the Gonçalva is situated to the western side of the Castrum.
