Trilho da Calçada Romana

An ancient medieval town dating back to the 12th century, Linhares da Beira boasts a unique architectural diversity, the result of the legacy of various eras. Linhares received its first charter in 1169, granted by King Afonso Henriques, but it was not until later, during the reign of King Dinis, that its imposing castle was built, the village’s emblem and its main calling card today.
