Dated from the 16th century (1538), this work was the object of several transformations that totally changed the initial project of Diogo Castilho and João de Ruão. The church, built in 1598, presents a circular form and is surrounded by a narrow balcony. The inside lodges carving works and sculptures from the 18th century.
