In the middle of some very precipitious countryside and some 45km/28mi northeast of Guarda lies the town of Almeida. It is surrounded by some well preserved Vauban defensive works laid out in the form of a twelve pointed star. Until the 19th C. Almeida remained impregnable until the French succeeded in entering it in 1810.
