Urrós is a civil parish of the municipality of Mogadouro, with 32,47 km² of area[1] and 250 inhabitants (2021 census).

[2] Located on the right bank of the Douro River, as it enters Portugal surrounded by small valleys, the parish of Urrós is twenty kilometers from the town of Mogadouro.

Ribeirinhos do Douro is located to the east, Algoso and Matela to the north, Travanca to the west, and Brunhozinho and Bemposta to the south.

Some authors say that its name has a topographical origin, while others suggest that it was owned by the Muslim Oborrós in 1019.

In the 14th and 15th centuries it appears as Orge, Ordo, Orgho and Orio, possibly derived from barley.
