Castro de Andelhe
Hill on the left bank of the Andelhe River, overlooking the EN 103. There are traces of fortification, particularly of the two lines of wall that surround the village. The interior, with North-South orientation, is also the most evident, has about 3 meters wide and the filling is in Earth and gravel. The defense is still stuck in stones complemented by the northern slope and a moat on the South side, where access would be easier. This was fully excavated in the rock and part of it is now used as a path. Also features a beautiful stretch of Hadrian's wall unit clearly pre-Roman trapezoidal. The site provides extensive visibility over the Rabagão, Northwest, on the serra do Larouco, and the serra do Barroso, South.
