Trevões is a village and (with the neighbouring village of Espinhosa, 4 km to the WNW) a civil parish (freguesia) in the municipality of São João da Pesqueira in the Viseu of Portugal. It is located approximately 8 km SSW of the town of São João da Pesqueira. Although small in size (the area of the parish is 21.55 km² and there were 540 inhabitants in 2011), the village possesses a church with some notable frescoes,[1] and two museums, one devoted to artefacts of the village and surrounding countryside, and the other to religious art; there are also many ancient houses in its historic centre. The philosopher José Maria da Cunha Seixas was born in the village.

The GR 14 long-distance footpath passes through the village.
