Noudar Castle is located in Barrancos next to the Spanish border in a very beautiful place between Múrtega and the Ardila rivers which flow towards the West.
Its construction was finished in 1307, during the reign of Don Dinis.The place was chosen because of its natural defenses, easy access and the closeness of a water spring of excellent quality - Fonte da Figueira, located roughly 250 meters to the East of the castle, under the hilltop known as Forca ("the Gallows”). Good and plentiful farming land and cattle grazing fields can also be found near the castle.
There can be found not only vestiges of the Medieval period, but also numerous testimonies of Roman and Islamic period, as revealed by several archaeological campaigns. The wall, reinforced by towers and pillars, has an hexagonal plan. The church Nossa Senhora do Desterro is situated inside the wall.
