The Church of Our Lady of Agony

The building of the Church of Our Lady of Agony, dating from the middle of the 18th century, is the result of the reconstruction of an old Chapel which was the last point in the way of the Cross. In this baroque example it is possible to point out some influences of the luso-Brazilian baroque style, including the remarkable altarpiece of the altars decorated with “large carved wood”, especially the cenotaph of the Passion designed by André Soares. The tower of 1868 was built disconnected from the rest of the building, to allow pilgrimmage around the church
