Vila de Rei (European Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈvilɐ ðɨ ˈʁɐj] ⓘ; "Royal City") is a municipality in the district of Castelo Branco in Portugal.

At the small town of Vila de Rei, it is worth admiring the 18th century Parish Church and the Miserichord Chapel.

A natural curiosity of Vila de Rei is the Penedo Furado (pierced boulder), which has been adapted to shelter two belvederes, set on a rocky platform surrounded by woods and small water-falls.

The Saint Michael Castro, on the top of the Ladeira mountains, at an altitude of about 493 metres (1,600 ft), is a fortified and walled settlement considered to be of Celtic origin and dates from the Iron Age, having been classified as a National Monument.

Administratively, the municipality is divided into 3 civil parishes (freguesias):[3] Media related to Vila de Rei at Wikimedia Commons
