The most beautiful railway station of the Douro.
History and development were generous for Pinhão, since this was the first parish of Vila Real to have telephone, permanent mail and piped water.Those who visit it ensure that it is the most beautiful train station of the region, thanks to the 24 panels of tiles that so well characterize it. The more than 3 thousand tiles tell us stories of the grape harvest, the treading of the grapes and the transportation of the Port Wine, in rabelo boats, to Vila Nova de Gaia.
