    The parish church of Albufeira, built at the end of the 18th century, is dedicated to Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception.

    The single-nave interior houses a valuable 18th-century image of the Virgin Mary and a painted altarpiece created in the 20th century by the local artist Samora Barros.

    This church houses the 15th-century image of Nossa Senhora da Orada, which is venerated by fishermen and returned annually in procession to the pilgrimage chapel of the same name. visitportugal.com/de/NR/exeres/4FA22619-CFA2-403A-B1D3-46475C80DB63

    Parish Church

    Located on Rua da Igreja Nova, it dates back to the 18th century (1782) and was consecrated on July 15, 1800, by the Bishop of the Algarve, Dom Francisco Gomes de Avelar. The Parish Church replaced the old Parish Church, which collapsed during the 1755 earthquake.

    In Neoclassical style and with a single nave, it has four side chapels, the baptismal chapel, the choir, two pulpits, and two side rooms. These rooms are dedicated to the Holy Souls, Bishop St. Louis, Our Lady of Fatima, and the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
