The Menhir of Outeiro is a prehistoric standing stone distinguished by its carved decorations, including a possible anthropomorphic figure and cup marks. Erected during the Neolithic or Chalcolithic period, this menhir stands about 2.5 meters tall and is located in a quiet field with views of the surrounding countryside. Visitors can examine the faint engravings that set this stone apart from others in the region. The site offers a more intimate encounter with megalithic art, away from larger tourist crowds. Its rural setting provides a tranquil atmosphere for reflection on ancient beliefs.
