  • Megaliths: Freddy Silva on Their Builders, Purpose & Power
    2025/06/26

    In this episode of Podcast Portugal, we welcome back and explore the mysterious world of Europe’s ancient megalithic structures with best-selling author and researcher Freddy Silva.

    Who really built the vast stone circles, dolmens, and temples across Portugal, Brittany, and the British Isles? How were these colossal stones moved with prehistoric tools? And were these sacred sites truly tombs—or something far more advanced?

    Freddy shares new insights from his latest documentary, which complements years of groundbreaking research found in his books.

    We dive into ancient sacred science, energy lines, astronomical alignments, and the forgotten spiritual purpose behind these structures.

    This is a journey into lost civilisations, ancient wisdom, and the hidden power encoded in stone.
