Located at the end of the Rua Cardoso Avelino, the attractive Desterro Church was founded in 1640 by Dom Frei Luís de Távora, who converted the existing chapel on the site. The interior of the church is lined with 18th century wood and gilt carving, the work of local master carvers Manuel Martins, Manuel de Gouveia and Manuel Machado. There are also azulejos and four paintings depicting the Annunciation, the Adoration of the Magi, the Adoration of the Shepherds and the Presentation of Jesus at the Temple.
