Castelo Rodrigo

The Historical Village of Castelo Rodrigo is, in its entirety, a true monumental space that preserves important medieval references. Among the monuments that add value to the historical heritage, the old walls, the ruins of the palace of Cristóbal de Moura, the Picota quinientista, the medieval church, the main church, the medieval cistern and the inscriptions that attest to the presence of an important community of New Christians stand out. For more than 600 years, this town was the town and capital of the province. At various moments in national history, its inhabitants have stood out for their courage and loyalty to the crown.
