Castro da Ermida

Highlight • Historical Site

Protohistoric settlement with Roman and Medieval occupation. It has an elongated shape
Northeast-Southwest, with a central enclosure delimited by a wall and, in connection with the spur, a defensive reinforcement consisting of two ditches and a slope. Towards the Northwest and Southeast, there are some platforms.
Archaeological excavations carried out between 1983 and 1987 reveal a continuous occupation between the 19th and 19th centuries.
5 . IV BC. and the sec. I of our Era.
The walls and the various excavated domestic structures, as well as the abundant ceramic and metal loot attributable to the end of the 17th century. I BC / beginning of the century. I AD are revealing of the great dynamism that Castro das Ermidas achieved in the final phase of Castro culture.
