Igreja Matriz de São João da Madeira
Igreja Matriz de São João da Madeira
Monuments
Built in 1884, it is an impressive building for the sobriety of its architectural lines and the grandeur and sturdiness of the building.
The church was designed by the great Master of Engineering, Professor António Araújo e Silva, of the Porto School, and is dedicated to St. John the Baptist. Its interior displays great wealth, beauty and variety, as much in the giltwork as in the iconographic and sculptural motifs.
The Roman military road from Talóbriga to Lancóbriga used to pass behind the church.
