Amid granite boulders and echoes of ancient battles, Moreira de Rei rises, an eagle's nest crowned by ruins that still whisper stories of fleeing kings, noblemen, and armies that passed through here. A good example is its name, which dates back to the time when Moreira welcomed King Sancho II on his way to exile from Toledo.

Beneath the old Romanesque church lies a proto-Christian necropolis, witness to centuries of faith. Between worn walls, Roman pavements, and Visigothic memories, the town preserves, in stone and silence, the grandeur of a past that has never ceased to pulse.
