What to expect
The national tourism inventory highlights the carved altar, pulpit and canopy, together with eighteenth-century canvases and procession panels. A raised, marbled tribune and a seventeenth-century image of Saint Francis are other details to look for when an interior visit is possible.
The church is on Largo da Misericórdia in the town itself. Pair it with the Matriz to compare two different interiors, while leaving space for religious use rather than treating the building simply as an exhibition room.
