The Church of the Wounds of the Savior, also known as Our Lady of Remedies, is of medieval origin and its history is intertwined with the imagery created around the Battle of Ourique. According to legend, the temple was established as a vow by King Afonso Henriques after his victory over the five Moorish kings. The building was in ruins at the beginning of the 17th century, and King Philip III authorized its reconstruction in 1621, allocating the income from the landholdings of the Castro Verde Fair for this purpose. The Philippine church, whose construction lasted for many years, is a Mannerist-style building with a single nave, a developed chancel, a bell tower, and a well-proportioned facade. The interior incorporates elements from different eras, featuring, alongside Baroque altars and 17th and 18th-century religious imagery, individual figure tile panels and historical paintings on the theme of the Miracle of the Battle of Ourique, created by Diogo Magina. 👍

The Casa D. Maria on Rua Fialho de Almeida is a palatial building from the 20th century with many staircases and towers, but looks older than it is.

The Church of Our Lady of the Resurrection was built in the 18th century on the site where King Sebastião held mass before embarking on his ill-fated expedition to Morocco. The church was built during the Portuguese Enlightenment under the patronage of Queen Maria I.

Fantastic location off N2. Welcoming host, comfortable bed, private bathroom with hot water, and amazing breakfast!

Susana and Rui are wonderful hosts. They are passionate about their home and surroundings, the environment, and social issues. We had many good conversations, both in our rusty Portuguese and their excellent English. The vegetarian dinner and breakfast are excellent. The bed was comfortable and the shower is amazing after a long dusty day. Rui also spent hours helping us plot out our next routes. We really recommend this place! Especially because our tandem fit in the hallway. Dan and Helen from the Yukon.
