Solar dos Condes de Vinhais
An 18th-century mansion with a longitudinal plan, it consists of three distinct sections, separated by the main body. In the center of the building, atop the central section, is the coat of arms of the Counts of Vinhais. The stonework is also notable.
It served as the headquarters of the Portuguese Youth and the Portuguese Legion from 1959 onwards and housed the Institute of Employment and Professional Action between 1975 and 1992.
