Description
With Romanesque and Modern features, the sanctuary is located on a hill overlooking the center of the parish of Castelo. According to bibliographic records, the site is presumed to have been a fortified settlement. Its walls still retain medieval vestiges and several graves have been dug into the rock.
Inside, there is a polychrome limestone image of Nossa Senhora Da Ó from the 14th or 15th century. This sanctuary is made up of the church of Nossa Senhora Da the Conception, the Chapel of Santa Bárbara, a bandstand, an information office/bar, toilets, a viewpoint and a picnic area.
