Castle of Rebordãos

The Castle of Rebordãos (Portuguese: Castelo de Rebordãos) is a Portuguese medieval castle in civil parish of Rebordãos, in the municipality of Bragança, in the northern Trás-os-Montes region in district of Bragança. Due to its position on the top of a steep cliff face, the castle was also known as

the Castelo de Tourão, or Castle of Polecats, referring to the small mammal indigenous to the region, and known for spotting from stakes, trees or poles. In this case, the title was a metaphor for its position at the top of the high cliff, providing clear visibility to the valley below.
