Understand the place

The walled enclosure preserves a particularly intact medieval image, with granite houses distributed around the rock castle.

What to watch out for

Enter through Porta da Vila, go through the pillory and climb to the castle, paying attention to the floor, the cisterns and the defensive solutions. Outside of the busiest moments, the silence helps you understand the domestic scale of this former county seat.

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.
