Ferreira do Zêzere: Woodland and reservoir

Ferreira do Zêzere combines extensive woodland with the branching waters of Castelo de Bode reservoir. Dornes makes this geography particularly clear: a whitewashed village occupies a peninsula surrounded by the waters of the Zêzere.

Woodland and reservoir

The close relationship between woodland and reservoir distinguishes the area, with indented shores and settlements closely associated with the water.

Dornes peninsula

Dornes brings together whitewashed houses, a pentagonal tower and the Sanctuary of Nossa Senhora do Pranto on a narrow reservoir-side site.

From local context to your project

The features described above help guide the first conversation. Depending on the property and its location, these details are useful to gather:

  • If the plot is near a watercourse, do you have a survey showing levels, access points and existing watercourses?
  • If you plan to alter an existing building, which plans, photographs of its current condition and records of earlier works are available?
