Igreja Matriz de Almeida / Igreja do Convento de Nossa Senhora do Loreto
Built in the 16th century, the building initially housed the Convento das Freiras Terceiras Regulares de S. Francisco, dedicated to Nossa Senhora do Loreto. Later, in the 18th and 19th centuries, it was a military headquarters and hospital. After the explosion of 1810, it was remodeled and became the village's Mother Church. Inside, the Capela do Menino Jesus stands out, with a portal from 1699. Currently, the temple is dedicated to Nossa Senhora das Candeias.
