Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Conceição
Revivalist neo-Gothic church, with a longitudinal drawing and three naves, being the main façade flanked by two asymmetrical towers. You can see a great influence of the gothic style, at the pointed arches and the constant presence of glass windows. The buttresses with the Santo António, São João de Deus, Beato Nuno Álvares Pereira and São João de Brito sculptures on top stand out, as well as the fine ornament on the arches and the friezes on the columns, examples of the Arab and Byzantine arts.
