Igreja de Nossa Senhora de Fátima, Almancil

Almancil’s modern parish church is the local choice for regular Catholic worship, distinct from the historic tile-covered São Lourenço church.

Rua João de Deus 4, Almancil

What to expect

The parish’s own directory identifies Nossa Senhora de Fátima on Rua João de Deus as an active worship site in Almancil. Its role is practical as well as architectural: it serves the local congregation rather than functioning primarily as a heritage visitor attraction.

It is a useful church to know for travellers staying in Almancil, Quinta do Lago or Vale do Lobo who want to attend a service during their holiday. Use the parish’s current programme for worship; do not apply São Lourenço’s heritage-visiting arrangements to this separate building.

Planning your visit

  • This is a separate building from Igreja de São Lourenço.
  • Use the parish’s current service programme rather than an old visitor timetable.
