The Castle of Penedono, also known as Castelo de Penedono, is a well-preserved medieval fortress set atop a granite hill that overlooks the town of Penedono. The castle showcases a unique pentagonal structure, differentiating it from other castles in Portugal. Its picturesque setting is perfect for capturing images, particularly during the golden hours when the light enhances the textures of the stone walls. Intricate heraldic symbols carved into its stones reflect its historical significance.
