Igreja de Santa Cruz
This temple was built in the middle of the 13th century and it was influenced by the introduction of the Gothic style in the town. On the 16th and 17th century it was adapted to new artistic tastes and it underwent some transformations: it received a sculpted pulpit in stone and the walls were covered in glazed tiles. On the 18th century it was added a doorway and a tower in baroque style. It stands out the worked capitals, the main chapel vault and the 17th century glazed tiles.
