On the imposing plateaus of Montemuro, the landscape bears traces of human presence over the centuries. Here, among the first stone constructions in the region, there are prehistoric tombs, solitary menhirs and ancient sacred sites, such as cromlechs.

Here, near the wind farm, these traces of the past still echo. The Marco da Jogada and several mounds near the chapel of São Pedro do Campo are testament to this heritage. Interestingly, the sacred remains in these heights, where modern chapels stand not far from these ancient necropolises.
