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.
