São Vicente de Aljubarrota Church
São Vicente de Aljubarrota Church
The São Vicente de Aljubarrota church dates from 1549 and was built where a 13th-century chapel once existed, which was already in an advanced state of degradation.
The construction of the Church was an imposition of the local population who wished that Aljubarrota had two parishes, each with its own church.
After the will of the people, the Church was really a short-term reality although, in the 20th century, it was the target of profound external and internal intervention, complemented with new interventions in the 70’s of that century.
You can also complement the visit to the Church with a visit to the Center of Sacred Art of Aljubarrota and Nossa Senhora dos Prazeres Church which together form a heritage and museological route with a guided tour promoted by the Parish Council of Aljubarrota.
Nearby there is also the Pillory and the various reasons of interest on Rua Direita.
