Valença

Knowing the Valença Fortress, is to go through the memories of 2000 years of the most striking pages of the historical adventures of Portugal and Spain.
A jewel of bastioned military architecture, with 5 km of wall, a living and multicultural fortress.
The houses, the military constructions, the churches, the views of the river Minho, the old metal bridge and the medieval Tui are completed in a unique setting.
Valença, a military bastion for the defense of Portugal’s independence, is today an open space to the world and a symbol of relations between Portugal and Spain.
Fortaleza and the unique flavors of gastronomy with cod, wines and sweets are an irresistible invitation to experience Valença.
