In my youth, I often crossed the river over those cement blocks, with the water almost wetting my boots, and other times, it wouldn't allow crossing the river at that point; we had to go around using the bridge on the road. Different times. 😂🚲

Cola Castle is a significant archaeological site. Classified as a National Monument, it was an ancient residence from the Iron Age. The larger Archaeological Park of Castro da Cola also includes other interesting prehistoric monuments including megalithic and chalcolithic ones and several necropolises dating back to the Bronze and Iron Ages. The defensive structure of the castro, dating back to the Iron Age, has a polygonal plan with reinforced blocks. The entrance was strategically controlled by a tower. The rest of the defensive structure was surrounded by walls, which are still visible today on the surrounding pastures and continue to protect the ancient castle.
