Labyrinthine settlement, of meandered streets and white coat, leans over the sea and the Arade. It was formed parish in 1749, when it detached from Estômbar. On June 30, 1999 is elevated to the village. Its origins date back to antiquity: eastern peoples were attracted to the mouth of the river, practicing fishing and producing fish algae.
The settlement was walled in the sixteenth century, but the only surviving fortified elements are the Mill Tower, watchman of the fifteenth century, and the Fort of St. John the Baptist, both greatly altered by uses. The fishing community, set there from the 14th century on, leads Queen Leonor to grant privileges to residents in 1520. It is from that year the construction of the Church of Our Lady of Conception.
Its interior holds rich estate from the 15th to the 20th centuries. In the 1970s, the decline of the sector opened doors to tourism, which supplanted agriculture and handicrafts. The connection to the sea remained, though distinct. And so it can be said that Ferragudo is still the girl of the river and the sea that was once.
Ferragudo is one of the most beautiful seaside village silhouettes that can be found throughout the Algarve.
The village of Ferragudo was born around the 14th century. Fishermen who sought at sea the sustenance for their families, settled in these parts, erecting shreths and humble huts. However, there are traces that attest to our human presence in Ferragudo in the period of Prehistory.
The mouth of the Arade was also the target of greed for the Phoenicians and Carthaginians. The Romans settled in the deep, dedicating themselves to fishing and the fish salting industry. To prove this stay are the archaeological finds found near the Fort of St. John of Arade.
According to historical sources, the toponym Ferragudo comes from the existence of an iron mill, implanted in Angrinha Beach, whose purpose was to raise the fish and the goods of the vessels that were on the coast.
The wonderful beaches and the exceptional natural conditions that can be found here, have been allied to the Villas, the villages, among other accommodation units, making Ferragudo, a region of recognized beauty, a pleasant place and ideal for a quiet holiday.
