Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Conceição, Conceição de Tavira

A historic parish church just inland from Cabanas, particularly notable for its carved entrance.

Largo Engenheiro Padinha Rodrigues, Conceição de Tavira

What to expect

This sixteenth-century church was built with local contributions and has a richly worked entrance that rewards a close look. It offers a mainland village-church stop for visitors based on the Cabanas waterfront.

The locality is Conceição de Tavira, not the seafront settlement itself. Plan it as a short outing inland and keep the parish church’s role in worship in mind; the architectural frontage is a useful focus when an interior visit is not available.
