Monte Raso (observation point) in Tões

Armamar
Description
In 1527 Tões was a simple and humble place, with only 30 residents. At that time there was no independent parish of Santa Senhorinha, being Tões an annex of the parish of Sâo Miguel in Armamar. The original church of Santa Maria was located in the place of Cortinhas and from there have emerged the cult of Sra. Da Guia. The present temple dates back to the early seventeenth century.

In Tões is produced wine, fruit and potatoes. Cereals, wheat and rye were intensive crops in other times. Monte Raso was considered the big "barn" in the parish and beyond.
