Tancas Abertas

Located a short distance from the inhabited center, this monumental fountain represents an important example of traditional water architecture.

The structure of the fountain is hexagonal and characterized by six sculpted mascarons that pour water into a central basin. This distinctive design not only embellishes the area, but also bears witness to the ingenuity of the ancient local water supply systems.

In addition to the fountain, nearby is an ancient washhouse, used in the past for washing clothes, which adds further historical and cultural value to the site.
