Visit the Church of St. Francis - St. Vincent da Beira

The São Francisco church, located in the parish of São Vicente da Beira, should date back to the 18th century. The plant develops longitudinally, articulating single nave with narrower chancel and an annex. The façade is defined laterally by stonework wedges and topped off by a cornice that accompanies the gable end, and a small bell tower overlaps in the center. The perfect arched main portal corresponds in the second register to a bay window.
Inside, the perfect back triumphal arch, the carved high altar with images and the tall wooden choir stand out.
