In addition to the Palace of the Counts of Anadia (see separate entry), the little town of Mangualde is worth the approximately 17 km journey from Viseu to see its other attractions. The pilgrimage church of Nossa Senhora do Castelo, 1.5 km north of the town, stands on a 680 metre high hill offering a wonderful panoramic view over the surrounding region. It also has a small 15th century chapel built to recall the battle fought at Trancoso against Spain. In the town, you should see the medieval Clock Tower, the 18th century Misericórdia Church and the Saint Julian Church founded in the 13th-14th centuries.
