The Capela de Nossa Senhora da Soledade (Our Lady of Solitude Chapel) is an example of rural architecture and was the original place of worship in Olhão. Very modest in size, its construction dates from the 17th century. The altar retables are later, dating from the 18th century, as is an interesting statue of Santa Luzia. At the entrance, a stone slab covers an old well. It is believed the water was used for cleansing the church.
