Ponte de Lima: one of the most historic villages in Portugal

Did you know that Ponte de Lima is one of the oldest villages in Portugal?
It is located in the Viana do Castelo district and is bordered by the Lima River.
It has become known worldwide for its rich agricultural land, the famous Vinho Verde that is produced there, and the gastronomy which gives the nation such a good name.

Ponte de Lima is famous for its natural beauty and offers excellent wine tourism.

Medieval and pure nature land bathed by the best national wines.

Come and get lost in the stone streets, explore the historic center without maps and meet this friendly people who welcome their visitors so well.

Through chapels and churches, discover tascas and peculiar grocery stores that enchant from the first hour of this tour.

Also learn about the legend of the Lima River, associated with the latin word Lethes or “forgetfulness”.

History has it that in 135 .C, the Roman legions reached the left bank of a river. The beauty of this place convinced the soldiers that they were faced with the mythical "River of Oblivion", and that crossing would erase all of their memory.

Afraid of losing their memory, the soldiers refused to cross the river.

Decimus Lunius Brutus, the commander of the legion, crossed the river and, without hesitation, called the soldiers by their names to prove that his memory was intact.

The bridge that gives the village its name.

As it could not fail to be, could not come to Ponte de Lima without visiting the jewel of the county, the medieval bridge, also known as Ponte Velha.

Composed of a medieval section and another of Roman origin, this monument marks the landscape of Ponte de Lima like no other.

This bridge is also a mandatory crossing point for thousands of pilgrims who are destined for our neighbor Spain on the well-known Camino Portuguese de Santiago de Compostela.
