Monuments

This unassuming church dates from the second half of the 17th century and was built on the site of a 16th century oratory, backing onto one of the gates in the city walls.

Inside it has fine tile decoration depicting scenes from the life of the Virgin and a richly decorated carved and gilded retable. On the ceiling there is a panel depicting the Virgin by the Algarvean painter Rasquinho (19th century). The statues to be seen are also good examples of the religious art of the period.
