Visit the Basilica of Santo Cristo - Outeiro (Bragança)
The basilica of Santo Cristo do Outeiro is a church-sanctuary in the Parish of Outeiro.
This basilica is a national monument since 1927 and received on July 12, 2014 the title of minor Basilica, attributed by the Congregation for Divine Worship and Discipline of the Sacraments.
It began to be built in 1698. Although the temple was open to worship from May 3, 1713, it was only effectively completed in 1739.
The architecture of the temple is distinguished by the symmetry and balance of proportions. It follows a baroque model inspired by the Manueline architecture, with the main source being the church of the Monastery of Santa Maria de Belém, in an attempt to revive the golden period of the discoveries before the Philippine dominion.
The main façade is inspired by the church of the Monastery of São Vicente de Fora. It is torn by a magnificent twinned portal, surmounted by a large rosette and flanked by two bell towers with a pyramidal finish.
The interior, of baroque taste, is typical of the church-hall. The altars of polychrome and gilt carving stand out.
In the sacristy stand the paintings of coffins by the Valistolean painter Damião Bustamante, made in 1768 and also following a seventeenth-century revivalist trend.
