Igreja de Santiago / Panteão dos Cabrais
Located in Largo do Castelo, this small church with a romantic style also features Mannerist and Gothic elements. It was built in the 13th century and its “ex libris” is the beautiful Pietá, in granite and polychromatic, which impressed the writer and Nobel Prize José Saramago, as reported in his book “Journey to Portugal”. Mural paintings and traces of a triptych with Our Lady, S. Tiago and S. Pedro can still be seen. The Cabrais Pantheon is next to the church.
