Moreira de Rei

Highlight • Historical Site

Amid granite boulders and echoes of ancient battles, Moreira de Rei rises, an eagle's nest crowned by ruins that still whisper stories of fleeing kings, noblemen, and armies that passed through here. A good example is its name, which dates back to the time when Moreira welcomed King Sancho II on his way to exile from Toledo.

Beneath the old Romanesque church lies a proto-Christian necropolis, witness to centuries of faith. Between worn walls, Roman pavements, and Visigothic memories, the town preserves, in stone and silence, the grandeur of a past that has never ceased to pulse.

Historic Village of Trancoso

Highlight • Historical Site

Its ancient castle contrasts with the fears and fears experienced by the people of yesteryear. It was a border town, the scene of many important battles and struggles for the formation and independence of the kingdom. It received important privileges. D. Afonso Henriques granted it a charter and D. Afonso III the charter of Feira. D. Dinis ordered the construction of the walls that still protect a village where Christians and Jews lived together. The ring of walls that still surround the old medieval town, as well as the vast civil and religious architectural heritage, give the Historic Centre a unique image.

View of Marialva with its castle

Highlight • Castle

In the heart of the rolling plain, your gaze reaches Marialva. As you follow the national road, in the distance, high above, the castle stands imposingly, guarding the valley beneath.

Historic Village of Marialva

Highlight • Historical Site

Marialva is a jewel among Portugal's Historic Villages. High above, the castle watches over centuries of conquests and legends, while within the walls still echo the memory of kings, fairs, and battles. Strolling its cobblestone streets is like traveling back in time: from the keep to the Church of Santiago, every detail tells a story. Outside the walls, vineyards and flavors of Beira Alta complete the landscape: roast kid, sheep's cheese, and sweets that preserve the taste of tradition. Here, the village is experienced as much on foot as at the table.
