This town's main attraction is the Mozarabic church, the only one on the Peninsula, which attests to the town's antiquity, predating the Christian reconquest. Also of great cultural interest are the remains of medieval anthropomorphic tombs, some Roman and perhaps Visigothic. Also, noteworthy are the pillory (a Property of Public Interest) and several sunny houses from the 17th and 18th centuries.

Oliveira do Hospital

The name of this village originated in Couto de Avão, because there was no bridge over the Alva River and the Moura Stream, so the old town could only be entered by fording (ad vadum). The warrior-poet Brás Garcia Mascarenhas, author of the epic poem "Viriato" (18th century), lived here. This land was inhabited by the Romans, perhaps the founders of the ruined castle. Among the monuments, the main church, presumably commissioned by King Afonso Henriques, is noteworthy, as is a 16th-century manor house, a pillory, and a chapel.
