Igreja Matriz de Viana do Alentejo
This is a Manueline building with mudejar influences done by Diogo Arruda. This church has a large nave with a minuscule apse which is sided by two small chapels. The main façade is torn by an ample Manueline doorway and by small openwork with a perfectly vaulted arch. It is decorated with wall paintings from the 18th century. On the inside the church is divided in three naves with 5 bays with the apse almost fitting on the vestment.
