Its castle, its Romanesque church and its narrow streets have survived almost unchanged, and the views from its walls take in the mountains and the surrounding plateau.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">History and identity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The village grew up around its castle, built in the twelfth century on the frontier between Christian and Muslim lands. It later became a quiet rural community, and its medieval layout and granite houses have been carefully preserved as part of the historic villages programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to see and do<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The castle and its walls, with views over the mountains.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Romanesque church of Santa Maria and the village&#8217;s old streets.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The pillory and the granite houses of the historic centre.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Walking routes in the surrounding Serra da Estrela.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gastronomy and traditions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The village keeps the traditions of the Beira mountains, with local cheeses \u2014 including the Serra da Estrela cheese \u2014 and the robust dishes of the region. Its festivals follow the agricultural calendar of the plateau.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visiting Linhares da Beira<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Linhares da Beira is in the municipality of Celorico da Beira, in the Serra da Estrela region, reached by road. Access to the village is free; for the castle and local services, check with the municipality before your visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visitor information: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cm-celoricodabeira.pt\/\" rel=\"noopener\">cm-celoricodabeira.pt<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Image credit: Linhares da Beira, Celorico da Beira, by Carlos Pinto, CC BY-SA 2.0, via Wikimedia Commons.<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A granite hilltop village in the Serra da Estrela, with a medieval castle and Romanesque church.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":58422,"parent":12244,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1074],"tags":[1072],"attraction-categ":[1056],"localidade":[1539],"content-type":[],"grupo-de-experiencias":[],"experiencia-tipo":[],"regioes_turisticas_term":[228],"class_list":["post-58427","to-visit","type-to-visit","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-city","tag-region-of-portugal","attraction-categ-city","localidade-celorico-da-beira","regioes_turisticas_term-center"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.8 (Yoast SEO v28.7) -
