Igreja do Salvador de Unhão

Of modest proportions, this temple has a single nave and a rectangular chancel, highlighting the main portal which, made up of four archivolts with a round arch decorated with geometric and vegetal motifs, frames a tympanum filled with the typical hollow cross of the bracarense tradition. The gilded carving of the altarpieces that flank the triumphal arch and the main altarpiece appears during the 18th and 19th centuries. The Church of Salvador de Unhão reflects the importance and scope of the settlement of the region during the 13th century, whose foundation can be dated from the epigraph that records the dedication of the temple on January 28, 1165.
