At 900 meters high, at the top of Serra da Freita, stands the Chapel of Nossa Senhora da Laje. This Baroque style chapel, built in the 17th century, is located in Merujal, parish of Urrô. Legend has it that the Chapel was built out of the need to Christianize the people of this place, as, in the past, they probably dedicated themselves to sacred manifestations. This building has undergone different renovations over time, with the last intervention being carried out in 2009. Composed of a single nave, it is possible to see, from the outside, the Chancel and the Sacristy. Inside, notice the coffered ceilings.
