Away from the urban centre, Chapel of Mileu is one of the oldest monuments in Guarda. Possibly with Visigothic roots, it is today an example of the transition period from the Romanesque to the Gothic. It stands out as an important point on the pilgrimage routes to Santiago de Compostela.

A revivalist pillory of the heraldic type, consisting of an octagonal shaft and a quadrangular base. It bears a shield with the municipality's coat of arms and, at the top, a royal crown.

It is an authentic monumental space where it is important to highlight the old walls, the ruins of the Palace of Cristóvão de Moura, the five hundred year old pillory, the main church, the medieval cistern and the vestiges that confirm the existence of New Christians.

The Guarda Cathedral, commissioned during the reign of King João I, was only completed 150 years later, creating the perfect symbiosis between Gothic and Manueline. The interior has a magnificent chancel in Ançã stone, made by the Coimbra workshop of João de Ruão, and is the greatest work of erudite sculpture of the later Renaissance period.

Dedicated to Our Lady of the Angels, this fortress-like 16th century church has a classical doorway with simple decorative elements, a chancel, a handmade vaulted ceiling and Baroque gilded woodcarvings.

The Old Episcopal Palace dates back to the late eighteenth century that, with the extinction of the Diocese of Pinhel, in 1882, was acquired by the City Council that assigned it to different functions. Now it gives way to the Casa da Cultura, where the José Manuel Soares Museum and the Pinhel Municipal Museum are also located.

Shaped like a polygon, the area covered by the village is limited to the urban nucleus and the surrounding area of the ramparts, where there are bastions, fortifications, gates, casemates and moats. This huge military complex was built in the 17th and 18th centuries.
