Romanesque church transformed in the Baroque period, housing a chapel with a Baroque altarpiece in gilded wood, the work of Manuel Martins.

This Romanesque church, transformed in the Baroque period, is entirely covered in azulejos. The walls and vault depict the life of St. Lawrence, an impressive work created around 1730 by Policarpo Bernardes, and one of the most extraordinary ensembles of its kind in the whole country. The Matriz church was built in the 18thcentury , with a single nave and a main chapel. Of particular note is the Baroque altarpiece in gilded wood at the back of the main chapel, the work of Manuel Martins.

L'église n'est pas facile d'accès toutefois elle est magnifique et elle vaut largement le coup. Les murs sont recouverts d'azulejos, c'est probablement l'une des plus belles églises d'Algarve, malheureusement, les photos sont interdites à l'intérieur du site mais on en prend plein les yeux.

Entrée à 2€ mais toute petite église qui vaut réellement le détour. Elle est entièrement décoré de faience bleue, le long des murs jusqu'au plafond compris! Très. Impressionnant

Un véritable petit bijou ! La façade très sobre ne laisse pas présager un tel foisonnement d'azulejos. Une brave dame "monte la garde" pour éviter que les touristes ne prennent des photos : n'essayez même pas !
Ne manquez pas de regarder les petites maisons traditionnelles autour de la Chapelle, elles ont toutes de très jolies cheminées typiques de l'Algarve.
