This town's main attraction is the Mozarabic church, the only one on the Peninsula, which attests to the town's antiquity, predating the Christian reconquest. Also of great cultural interest are the remains of medieval anthropomorphic tombs, some Roman and perhaps Visigothic. Also, noteworthy are the pillory (a Property of Public Interest) and several sunny houses from the 17th and 18th centuries.

The name of this village originated in Couto de Avão, because there was no bridge over the Alva River and the Moura Stream, so the old town could only be entered by fording (ad vadum). The warrior-poet Brás Garcia Mascarenhas, author of the epic poem "Viriato" (18th century), lived here. This land was inhabited by the Romans, perhaps the founders of the ruined castle. Among the monuments, the main church, presumably commissioned by King Afonso Henriques, is noteworthy, as is a 16th-century manor house, a pillory, and a chapel.

The Roman Ruins of Bobadela bear witness not only to the importance of the Roman city in ancient times, but also to the presence of ancient peoples, such as the Romans, who left their mark before the 4th century BC. From the ancient Roman city, a perfect round arch with a rusticated structure supported by strong pillars, the Roman amphitheater, several tombstones, and other remains of significant interest remain.

The castle sits on the banks of the Alva River, with a wall measuring 3.50 meters high and 2.70 meters wide. It was built in the 13th century and rebuilt in the 14th century. Next to the gate is the Chapel of São Miguel, with a nave featuring a projecting, vaulted chancel with two side niches.

Its pre-Romanesque origins make this church a rare example in Portugal. This Mozarabic temple reflects the diversity of influences it experienced during the First Reconquista. The uniqueness of this church also stems from the reused Roman, Visigothic, and Arab materials, and the monumentality of the galilee and the three naves with horseshoe arches.

A park with abundant vegetation, considered the city's lungs. It features an amphitheater, a fitness track, a lake with a waterfall, a school garden, a playground, and a picnic area.

Located in a quiet area, seven kilometers from Penamacor, these hot springs have recognized therapeutic indications for rheumatic, musculoskeletal and respiratory diseases.

River beach located on the Ribeira da Meimoa, named after the nearby mill. It features a large reservoir, a bar, and a pleasant grassy area where camping is permitted for free.

A ramped deck bridge with nine full arches of varying diameters, six cutwaters, simple railings, and a granite paved floor. It is believed to have been built between the 14th and 16th centuries, based on the structure of a Roman bridge.

A Mannerist and Baroque church with a longitudinal plan consisting of a nave, a narrower and lower chancel, an attached sacristy, and a freestanding bell tower. It was built in the 17th century and extensively altered in subsequent centuries. It is possibly one of the oldest monuments in Penamacor. The late-Baroque altarpieces are notable.
