Arco de Paradela

Memorial arch from the Middle Ages. It is associated with the passage of Count Pedro's funeral procession. For some, it is a monumental landmark that was erected to demarcate the limit of the Couto do Monastery of São João de Tarouca, for others it is a funerary monument built for the tomb of Diogo Anes, who in 1175 (12th century) was the owner of the land.
