Castelo de Lindoso

Built during the reign of King Afonso III, it sits atop a rocky hillock next to the town. The castle, shaped like a quadrangular star, has a keep approximately 15 meters high. Several semi-spherical domes still remain at the corners of the wall, with slits for the use of firearms. It houses a museum inside.
