Vilvestre invites you to stroll through its streets, framed by houses that maintain popular architecture.
We recommend a visit to the hill, since at the top there was a prehistoric sanctuary of which archaeological remains have been found today preserved in the museum of the town. There was also later a Castro Veton and, later, a castle was built, of which only part of the ruined walls are preserved.
Two religious temples are worth a visit: the Hermitage of the Castle and the Church of Our Lady of the Assumption.
