Description
Conjunto Megalítico de Barreira is a fascinating megalithic complex located on a forested hill near the village of Odrinhas, Portugal.
This unique monument consists of about twenty menhirs and other monoliths ranging from 1 to 4 meters in height, dating back to the Neolithic period. Some of the stones have mysterious round recesses resembling eyes, which adds to the mystical character of the site.
Archaeological discoveries indicate multiple uses of the site over the centuries - from the Lower Paleolithic, through the Neolithic and into the Iron Age. It's an excellent destination for prehistory enthusiasts and those who appreciate peaceful, picturesque places with a rich history.
