This place holds ancient memories, with remains dating back to the Bronze Age, with fragments of pottery that reveal human presence since ancient times. But the story did not end there: occupation extended into the Iron Age and continued during Roman rule.

The ancient defensive walls of Castro de São Paulo, now almost gone, were worn down by time or transformed into terraces by the hands of farmers who, over the centuries, shaped the landscape to suit their needs.
