Botão

Located in a fertile valley, by the brook with the same name, the village of Botão dates back to the pre-roman age and was a "moçárabe" (moorish and native) village in the 9th and 11th centuries. Agriculture is its main activity and then craftswork, namely the making of toothpicks. Its monumental heritage includes the church of Saint Mateus, with manuelin high altar and campanile, the temple shaped crucifix and the ruined manuelin palace.
