Miranda do Corvo

Located in the center of the country, the municipality of Miranda do Corvo is very close to the Serra da Lousã, crossed by the Ceira, Dueça, and Alheda rivers. Miranda's name comes from the term "mirandus," meaning watchtower or belvedere, referring to the site of the original castle. Be sure to visit the typical schist village of Gondramaz, an interesting rural settlement known for its beautiful landscape and characteristic schist houses. In terms of cuisine, the "negalhos" (made with goat's stomach and intestines) and "sopa de casamento" (a delicacy made with "chanfana sauce", alternating cooked kale with slices of bread) are the most popular dishes. Among the crafts, the stone sculptures of Gondramaz and the lace of Semide stand out.
