The 16th century portal of the Igreja Matriz of Moncarapacho, with its Roman and Gothic motifs, is considered one of the finest examples of the Renaissance style in all the Algarve. The main doorway has sculpted figures representing the Annunciation and the apostles, St Peter and St Paul. Roman-gothic elements are also visible on the cornerstones at the rear of the church. Inside, the paintings in the Chapel of Souls and the collection of 17th and 18th century statuary, including figures of Our Lady of the Rosary and Our Lord of Patience, are particularly deserving of mention.
