Large stone statue at the Miradouro da Penha, erected in honor of Pope Pius IX. The big rocks are often so close together that you have to push your way through them.

Penha Sanctuary

Highlight • Religious Site

The plans for the building were drawn up by the Portuguese architect José Marques da Silva. Work began on August 6, 1930. Marques da Silva broke with traditional forms of church construction in Portugal and heavily influenced the Art Deco style of the 1930s. Locally sourced granite was used almost exclusively in the construction.

During construction, a fire broke out on February 4, 1939, which destroyed an image of the Immaculate Conception and a carving crowning the main altar. This delayed the completion of the church.

The church was consecrated on September 14, 1947, without the architect present, who had died three months earlier.

Very beautiful flower fields, well cared for with a wide variety of flowers. You can walk along here to the church and enjoy the view of the church.

Church of São Miguel do Castelo

Highlight • Religious Site

Always go around to the left ... In the middle of the sun, several stone slabs embedded in the ground, under which many knights are buried. Right at the beginning on the left is the baptismal font in which Alfonso I was baptized.
