    This archaeological site stands out in the landscape of the Terra Chá of Lugo. Here you will find several walls, moats and a large central croa. The buildings discovered include homes, corrals, warehouses and buildings for social or communal use. The Viladonga Castro had a long-lasting and especially important settlement between the 2nd and 5th centuries AD, which makes it a key site for understanding the evolution of the forts and the rural environment in the Galician-Roman period.
    It's a fascinating place to explore the history and culture of the region! 😊

      If you are interested in history, the best place to visit is the old wall remains. Here you can still see the urban planning of the former settlement very well.
