City castro

Castro da Cidá
It is a fortified representation of notable dimensions that dates back to the first Iron Age, a settlement with a privileged defensive position.
The town is structured around an elevated oval-shaped area with a second enclosure, the antecastro, which is led by an embankment to the west and south, while to the north a steep area acts as a natural defense. The archaeological excavations in 2014 and 2015 revealed a total of 24 very diverse structures and more than 600 ceramic or metallurgical pieces. There are also remains of an 18th century maritime control lookout house. In fact, this enclave offers a privileged view of the entrance to the Ría de Arousa and the Parque Natural do Complexo Dunar de Corrubedo e Lagoas de Carregal e Vixán.
