We are here at the summit of Monte Crasto, in the centre of Gondomar, at an altitude of 194 metres – a natural fortress, defended by enormous boulders upon which the Chapel of Santo Isidoro stands, thus fully deserving its Latin name “castrum”, which for the Romans meant “castle” or “fortress”. It is not known whether any fortification ever existed on this site; however, two hoards of Roman coins and other remains have been found. The Chapel of Santo Isidoro, built in the mid-18th century, was completely rebuilt in the first half of the 20th century. It currently belongs to the Confraternity of Santo Isidoro.
