The Chapel of St. Frutuoso, located in the Parish of Real, was built on the initiative of St. Frutuoso, bishop of Braga and Dume in the second half of the seventh century.
During the seventeenth century, it was incorporated into the Convent of St. Francis (Braga), whose church is now the seat of the parish of St. Jerome of Real.
It has a unique small chapel, in pre-Romanesque style, with a Suevo-Visigothic moth, apparently inspired by the Byzantine mausoleums.
Its interior is considered like unique exemplar of the Architecture of the high Average Age Galaica.
This Chapel is classified as a National Monument.
