Castelo de Vinhais

Castle built in the 13th century, then subject to modifications in 1253. It had great military importance due to its location in a border area. Currently, some walls of medieval origin remain, as well as some towers and doors. In the 18th century, the existing castle was demolished so that the main church could be erected.
