24 granite granaries grouped on a threshing floor over the rock, beside a 16th-century pelourinho. Visit · 45 min · Everyone

In Soajo, 24 espigueiros, the granite granaries of the Minho, stand together on a great slab of rock at the entrance to the village. They served to dry maize away from damp and mice, and some are still used. Then go up to the square, where the 16th-century pelourinho has a carved face of a very unusual figure. Park at the entrance: the streets in the centre are narrow.
