Castelo de Codesseiro / Torre de Codesseiro
Portugal, Portugal
Castelo de Codesseiro, also known as Torre de Codesseiro, is a medieval tower in the village of Codesseiro, Guarda district, northeastern Portugal, situated on ancient Lusitanian castro remains frequented by Romans, Celts, and King Manuel I.
Once part of a former municipality reduced to a parish 505 years ago, local legends tie it to Inês de Castro, with the structure serving frontier defense amid Serra da Estrela foothills alongside nearby monuments like sepulchral slabs and a pelourinho. Its ruins reflect layered prehistoric to medieval history in a region marked by early settlement and royal visits.
