Castro de Fernão Mouro
Fortified village, chronologically contemporary castro de Pedrário, located on the upper deck of the Mount of the same name, 1128 m above sea level. Difficult to access by the East side, it is a semicircular enclosure defended by a single thick line of wall.
Inside the enclosure are visible a few boulders with circular dimples. In all its extension you can still identify a line of wall, although only the foundations remaining on some points. These structures are attributable to the iron age.
This border is the castro de Pedrário, which gets an insider's view, both dominating the Valley of the serra do Larouco Assureira.
