Igreja Matriz da Atalaia

This Renaissance church was founded by Dom Pedro de Menezes in 1528. It has a unique facade, where the gable slopes symmetrically down to the pillars, opening into two arches. Of particular note are the carved stonework, the star-vaulted ceiling of the chancel, the early 17th-century tiles, the pulpit, and the wooden balcony.
