Fortress of Reis Maos (Bardez )-Situated in the extreme south of Bardez, it was build by the Viceroy D.Afonso de Noronha (1551-1554). At present, it serves as a central jail. The village of Reis magos, where the Fort is situated, is a historic landmark full of traditional significance. It was here that the colourful ceremony of the former Portuguese Viceroys assuming office was enacted. The building where the former Viceroys resided was a two storied edifice, attached to the Church and constituting a little palace with several spacious and well-ventilated rooms and four stairways made of black stone. Only a small portion is left of the old construction, this being the parish house.
