São João das Lampas Church

Consecrated to Saint John Baptist, this church is a great temple of gothic origin.
Inside the church the entire covering of the nave is detached by the 17th century tiles as well as the existence of two ceramic registers figured. The wooden ceiling remains covered with 17th century paintings.
The main chapel is covered by tiles put diagonally and the main altar has a particular cross centred and made in white tiles where pieces of black tiles where added, pretending to be gillyflowers.
