Castelo dos Mouros

This castle was built in the 12th century and later underwent several modifications, mainly during the reign of King Ferdinand II. Its current appearance possibly dates from this period. Of the original Moorish castle, the cistern, the battlement line, and the square towers that reinforce the wall remain. Inside its enclosure, there is a ruined Romanesque chapel.
