As ruínas da Torre de Vasconcellos, popularmente referida como Casa dos Mouros, e sua honra localizam-se na freguesia de Ferreiros, concelho de Amares, distrito de Braga, em Portugal.

Edificada num esporão de terreno sobranceiro à ribeira de Bárrio, perto do lugar de Vasconcelos, as ruínas atualmente existentes, constituem os vestígios de um dos raros paços de origem românica no país.

Aqui viveu o poeta português do século XVI Sá de Miranda.^[^{carece de fontes?]}

No princípio do século XIX surge como seu proprietário Luís Machado de Mendonça Eça Castro e Vasconcelos, moço-fidalgo da Casa Real, com descendência nos condes da Figueira.
