Igreja de Santa Maria de Almacave - Lamego
Monuments
A Romanesque church from the second half of the twelfth century. From the original construction, there still remains the Romanesque doorway, with three archivolts, as well as the side doors and lintels.
The inside was profoundly altered in the eighteenth century when it was embellished with azulejos and carved and gilded woodwork on the altars. Special attention is drawn to the tradition of the first cortes (parliament) to be held in Portugal, hosted by Lamego in the early days of the nation´s existence.
