Couce Village
Highlight • Settlement
In this analysis of the genuineness of Couce's architecture, however, there are other works that deserve attention, the oldest of which is the Roman bridge that persists in the village, almost intact, since the territory was occupied by explorers of the Italian empire. From a much more recent period is the village chapel, as well as its haystacks, which have served as support for the community's agricultural activities, and its threshing floors, which function as a space for socializing among the population, who threshed corn there and shared news from the land.
These habits and customs encourage discovering more of the surrounding landscape, motivating walks along the green and cool banks of the Ferreira River, where it is still possible to imagine how the nooks and crannies of Couce led the Romans and their slaves to settle in the area. From those times, moreover, remains the housing layout that is still identified in this Village of Portugal, with the houses very close to each other, so that, in the context of the geographical isolation of the village, the residents could better defend themselves in case of external threats.
