The Hermitage of Nossa Senhora da Conceição was built the second half of the 17th century on the site of a 16th century oratory. It backs onto one of the gates in the city walls. Inside are beautiful tile decorations depicting scenes from the life of the Virgin. There is also a richly decorated carved and gilded retable. On the ceiling there is a panel, again depicting the Virgin, by the 19th century Algarvean painter, Rasquinho.
