Understand the place
The walled village dominates the plateau of Figueira de Castelo Rodrigo and preserves medieval, Manueline and 17th century marks.
What to watch out for
Look for the ruins of Cristóvão de Moura's palace, the main church, the cistern and references to the Jewish presence. From the walls you can read the border position of the village and the landscape that extends towards the Douro valley and Spain.
Prepare the passage
Take time to explore the city center on foot, respect homes and properties and only use designated parking spaces. Confirm any changes to access, events and services on the official network and local entities.
