Casa do Capitão-Mor
Civil construction from the 17th century, with ten balcony windows, interrupted by the coat of arms of the Mattos e Silva family and by a niche where the image of Queen Saint Isabel appears, alluding to the passage of Dom Dinis' wife through this town who spent the night in a building where this house was later built. During the French invasions, it was the headquarters of the Portuguese-English troops, and the Duke of Wellington and General Beresford stayed here.
