Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)

Menires de Milrei e do Padrão submitted by paulcall on 1st Sep 2008. This menhir is the only one in the area of south-western Portugal which is, to my knowledge, upright, having been re-erected. It is also known as Menir de Padrao This stone is found south of Raposeira, by heading out of the village and turning right onto the first road, and driving about 500m.
