Santuário de Nossa Senhora do Fetal
The Sanctuary of Nossa Senhora do Fetal is composed by a small church and a cemetery, both built on the 16th century. Here is where the Holly Spirit festivity takes place, based on the story of a child that shepherded the cattle and begged for bread to survive. Hence, in this festivity everybody receives bread, sponsored by the “emperor”, someone that made a promise and as a consequence has to bear all the expenses.
