One of the three fortresses that protect the entrance to the Ferrol estuary where the sea narrows at Punta da Redonda, forming part of the "Triángulo de Fogo", since there was no corner where the cannons could not reach with their fire. The Castelo da Palma, was built as a watchtower in the 16th century
