Montalegre
Montalegre () is a municipality in northern Portugal, located in the district of Vila Real, along the border with Spain. The population in 2011 was 10,537, in an area of 805.46 km². History Early construction in Montalegre date back 3500–4000 years when early inhabitants, around the villages of Mourela, Veiga and Vila da Ponte, buried their dead in funeral mounds.

Remains of the Roman civitas are still common: ''Praesidium'' (in Vila da Ponte, popularly known as ''Sabaraz'') and ''Caladunum'' (in Cervos). Although there were no overt indications ...
