Leceia

Leceia is a small town belonging to the parish of Barcarena, located in one of the highest points of Oeiras, with an excellent view over the valley of the Barcarena stream, the rest of the municipality and the sea.

Known for its history, Castro de Leceia , which dates back to the Neolithic period 5000 years ago, at that time constituted a village whose economy based on agricultural and pastoral activity was successful for about 1000 years and then abandoned.

Today, Leceia, is a place whose urban design is fundamentally made up of houses, and recently new subdivisions were born, with others already licensed, for construction in the so-called Leceia de Cima.

Points of interest:
