The Vilaoudriz kilns, made up of five kilns built in different stages, are the largest set of calcination kilns in the northwest of the peninsula and a visit is highly recommended. The two oldest were built in brick, while the other three used masonry. With 11 meters high and 4 meters in diameter each, and four loading entrances, this construction also preserves a mine entrance from where the mineral extracted from the Vieiro Mine came.
