Built before 1570, at the height of the Portuguese Renaissance, the chapel of Nossa Senhora da Penha stands tall at the top of the Serra de São Paulo, at an altitude of 710 metres. To get there, you have to climb a steep staircase, an effort rewarded by the serenity of the place and the breathtaking views.

Although the original image of Senhora da Penha was stolen, a replica now occupies its place on the altar.

From the top, the view is breathtaking: the town stretches out below, with its watchful castle, white houses and rolling fields; to the east, the imposing quartzite ridge of Marvão stands out; in the background, the River Sever marks the border, and to the north the horizon is bordered by the Açor, Gardunha and Estrela mountains.
