Description

Over the years it has been the target of violations which have resulted in a large central crater and fragmentation of the pillars.
The ignorance of the importance of this mound as a testimony to the presence of prehistoric man and his funerary practices led to the place becoming a garbage dump.

Concerned with the preservation of the monument, the City Council submitted, through the Department of Culture, in 2003, a candidacy to ADER-SOUSA, with the project “Protection and Valorization of Mamoa de Brandião”, developing, in 2004, works cleaning, giving the monument more visibility, informative signs were placed and various activities were carried out for educational purposes.
