Fontelo is a parish in the northern municipality of Armamar in Portugal. The population in 2011 was 641, in an area of 7.52 km².
==History== There are a few elements that prove the antiquity of the settlement of Fontelo. The castro of São Domingos, which was a Romanized rural villa, marks the first referential indication of local settlement. The settlement's growth is intimately linked to the chapel that was constructed on Mount São Domingos, in place of a pagan shrine.
