CAST IRON DA MEALHADA

Here is a very imposing granite fountain, anchored on a checkerboard floor. On its facade, a coat of arms indicates its date of construction: 1699. Its four lion's head-shaped spouts dispense water that is said to be excellent for health and especially for the digestive system. It's time to fill your water bottles! The stop is all the more appreciable that the fountain occupies a superb situation, with the Serra de São Paulo in the background. An inscription on the fountain invites you to drink its water if you want to return to Castelo de Vide..
