context_page_description: The Castle of Mogadouro is a medieval castle located in the civil parish of Mogadouro, Valverde, Vale de Porco e Vilar de Rei, in the municipality of Mogadouro, Portuguese district of Bragança.
context_section_description: The remnants of the castle are implanted on a hilltop of rocks and cliff, with a view of the Serra de Mogadouro to the south. Alongside are the Torre do Relógio (Clock tower of Mogadouro), a palace/residence in ruins, the Chapel of the Misericórdia, pillory and section of the stations of the cross.
  The castle structure includes a few lines of walls, the rectangular keep tower addorsed in the southeast by a line of walls, the former-castle residence and corner wall, accessed from an arch, and another line of walls that connects the residence to a small trapezoidal tower.
  The keep tower was erected over a rocky hilltop, and included two arched doors in the northeast and southeast, accessible from two flights of stairs and landing. In the northwest, is a rectangular window with grade, surmounted by an arrow-slit and in the southwest by two slits on both registers. Along the western part of the tower is a rectangular cistern, while to the southeast are remnants of the former-barbican.
