This chapel is located between the banks of the Minho River and the urban area of Seixas, without any chronological or documentary data. Its stone construction, with openings limited by the door and a small postern, may place it in the Middle Ages. Chapel of Saint Sebastian This chapel is located between the banks of the Minho River and the urban area of Seixas, following the quay and with the cycle path passing right next to it, as seen in the photo. Without any chronological or documentary data, the existence of the Chapel of Saint Sebastian is only confirmed by its construction on the site. 👍🥾 You can obtain more information about this chapel at the link below.
