La Salette Park, designed by Jerónimo Monteiro da Costa, is a 17-hectare leisure site in Oliveira de Azeméis. The Sanctuary of Our Lady of La Salette is located in the park, a neo-medieval temple from the beginning of the 20th century, with stained glass windows and sculptures by Henrique Moreira. The park offers viewpoints with panoramic views, including São João da Madeira and Serra da Gralheira. The construction of the original chapel dates back to 1870, and was later expanded and transformed into a park in 1909.

The actual Marian shrine "La Salette," to which the patronal feast found here refers, is not located in Portugal, but in the French Alps (Grenoble district). It is an important site of Marian devotion, even if it has not achieved the same level of fame as other pilgrimage sites honoring the Mother of God—such as the famous Fatima or Lourdes in the French Pyrenees.

In the komoot system, the original Marian shrine "La Salette," the mother church, so to speak, for the patronal feast found here, is naturally also included as a highlight and can be found at the following link =>> komoot.com/de-de/highlight/1861054
