Fortified settlement in Vilalba, 474 m above sea level, 6 km from Vilalba.

O castro dos Penedos, tamén coñecido como castro de Belesar, é un castro situado na parroquia de Belesar, no concello lucense de Vilalba. Accédese a el logo de chegar á ponte de Meire e dende alí xa se ve unha forte pendente, que corresponde cunha parte do castro. Tamén recibe o nome de castro de Santa Catarina por unha capela en adoración á santa que se construíu sobre el e da que só se conserva un muro.
