Castelo de Fontalva
The castle, as we know it today, is a modern renovation of fortifications that, according to archaeological studies, date back to the Castro culture. Of the original design, only the quadrangular wall remains, protected at the corners by turrets. During the reign of King João III, it was converted into a sunny, castellated residence.
