Mosteiro de São Pedro de Cête
- heritage
Largo do Mosteiro
4580-312, Cête
A Romanesque monument, one of the oldest in Portugal. Of the Monastery, only the Church, the chapter house, and the pre-Manueline cloister remain after centuries of decay. The semi-warlike appearance of the convent church, with its crenellated side tower, thick walls, and the giant flanking its portal, gives it a religious and, at the same time, defensive function. Inside, the highlights are the depth and height of the nave, as well as the robustness of the granite vault of the chancel and the well-preserved tomb chests of noble knights. Also noteworthy is a vestige of a mural painting representing St. …

This scenic spot is ideal for extreme sports, offering a wide range of views. Legend tells of a knight who, chasing the Devil incarnate as a deer, jumped over the abyss at Lugar do Salto (Place of the Leap). Upon landing, he invoked the name of Our Lady, and miraculously, horse and rider landed safely on the other bank, where the horse's hoofprints can still be seen today. In gratitude, the knight commissioned the construction of the Chapel of Our Lady of Salto. It's a place much appreciated by locals and tourists alike, due to its excellent location.

Lugar da Vila
4585-005, Aguiar de Sousa
This tower is highly prestigious, not so much for the existing remains, but for its strategic location and the importance the castle held in the historical context of the Reconquista, as it was located on the defensive line of the territory, highly valued by the Asturian kings. It was attacked by Almanzor in 995, led a land in the process of territorial reorganization in the 11th century, and was also a powerful judicial district, one of the most affluent between the Douro and Minho rivers, accumulating great wealth, its territory extending from Porto to near Penafiel.
