What to expect
St Luke’s is a circular church in the Monte da Palhagueira residential setting. It belongs to St Vincent’s Anglican Chaplaincy and provides a different religious tradition from the Algarve’s predominantly Catholic parish churches.
The congregation welcomes holiday visitors as well as residents. Its rural location means planning a separate journey, and it should be approached as an active place of worship within a residential community rather than an unrestricted sightseeing complex.
- Also known as
- St Luke's Palhagueira · Igreja Anglicana de São Lucas
Planning your visit
- The church is at Monte da Palhagueira near Gorjões, not in central Faro.
