Igreja de Santa Maria de Celorico da Beira

The temple was built in the 13th and 14th centuries and renovated in the 18th century, still preserving its Baroque façade and two bell towers from that period. Notable features include the statuary and some paintings, the coffered ceiling with painted figures of saints, the 17th-century tiles, and the tombstones. During the third French invasion, it served as a field hospital for the English.
