Fort São Neutel is located in the Parish of Santa Maria Maior of the city of Chaves, District of Vila Real, in Portugal.

[1] It was the scene of combat, in 1912, between monarchists led by Paiva Couceiro and the newly established republican regime during the Royalist attack on Chaves.

[1] The fort has a square shape that is adapted to the terrain, with bastions at the edges, in the Vauban style, surrounded by a dry moat and a second defensive line.

[1] Inside, the Chapel of Nossa Senhora das Brotas stands out, built before the fort, whose Lady is honored annually, on Easter Sunday, with a procession and feast.

It has a unique altar with the image of São Neutel, with that of Senhora das Brotas (persistence of an ancient pagan cult of Ceres) represented in a painting suspended on the side wall.
