Igreja de Santa Maria de Airães

Although founded in the 11th century, the Romanesque building of this church only took place in the 13th and 14th centuries, when Gothic-inspired elements were also introduced, later suffering an extension to three naves and renovations in the 17th and 19th centuries. The portico with four archivolts retains its original features. The interior, whose appearance is the result of the reconstructions it underwent, is partially lined with 17th-century tiles. It is worth admiring the Romanesque portico, the three naves supported by powerful columns and the gilded statues.
