Located about 42 km northwest of Torre de Moncorvo, it is worth paying a visit to this white granite area to see the medieval Castelo de Carrazeda de Ansiães ruins south of the town. The Porta de São Salvador, flanked by two towers and the keep, together with some town walls and the 12th century Romanesque church of São Salvador, remain. In Ribalonga, there is the swaying stone (pedra bulideira), a huge boulder which moves when touched, but remains in place. There is also evidence of prehistoric occupation in the region, by the presence of dolmens and rock paintings.
