Molinos del Folón y del Picón

The Folón and Picón Mills comprise 60 stone buildings arranged in a cascade formation along Campo do Couto mountain slopes.

The earliest mills in the complex date back to 1702, with construction continuing through the 18th century to serve local agricultural needs.

The stone walls of these mills display numerous inscriptions, names, and dates that document the history of local families and mill ownership.

Visitors can explore the site through a marked 3.5-kilometer trail that connects all sections of the mill complex and includes informational panels.

The mills feature a two-level design with grain processing on the upper floor and water-powered mechanisms in the lower chamber.
