  • Viana Do Castelo Travel Guide & City Information

Viana do Castelo was founded in 1258 but it also has a pre-roman evidence of human occupation in the ruins of a city at the top of Santa Luzia hill, which you can visit. In the centre you will find many small streets with old houses.

The main attractions include the Cathedral (15 th century) and the surrounding streets, the Misericórdia (16 th century) and the Old Town Hall right in the main old square. And obviously, dont miss the neo-Byzantine Church of Santa Luzia, located on top of the Santa Luzia hill and with an astonishing view of Viana do Castelo, the river estuary and the sea.
