Tips
The Anta do Penedo Gordo stands like a stone echo from ancient times. With its polygonal chamber formed by nine pillars and a corridor flanked by four on each side, this megalithic monument still preserves traces of the ancient mound, visible mainly to the south. Its construction dates back to the Late Neolithic or Chalcolithic period (between 3500 and 2000 BC) when the landscape was filled with mystery, rituals and stories carved into the rock.
