Castro of Viladonga, Archaeological site near Castro de Rei, Spain

The Castro of Viladonga stands at a mountain peak, offering views of Terra Chá and the mountain ranges of Monciro, Pradairo, and Meira.

Archaeological excavations that began in 1971 revealed significant structures and artifacts from the settlement period between the 2nd and 5th centuries AD.

The Viladonga Museum exhibits a collection of weapons, games, farming tools, ceramics, and decorative objects that illustrate daily life in ancient Galicia.

The museum opens daily from 10 AM until 8 PM between March and October, and until 7 PM from November to February, with free access to the castro area.

Two Arcadian gold coins were discovered among numerous bronze objects and Celtic ceramics during the initial archaeological investigations at the site.
