Batalha

Reguengo do Fetal is located north of Fátima and is extremely well-known among climbers. With typical regional architecture, the main points of interest are the parish church (a Property of Public Interest), built in the 16th century with alterations in the 18th century, the chapels of Our Lady of Fetal and Saint Matthew, the wayside cross, and the Eay of the Cross. In October, the pilgrimage maintains the old tradition of the night procession illuminated by thousands of lanterns made from snail shells. Besides climbing, a hunting area for tourists can be found near the village.
