The architecture of the Church of Nossa Senhora da Conceição is typical of a country church. The altar is 14th century and has an interesting display of 17th and 18th century statues. In the sacristy there is a 15th century two-sided representation of Our Lady and Christ on the Cross, and a 16th century statue of St Sebastian. There is a collection of sailors’ and fishermen’s "ex-votos", depicting the miracles performed by the church’s patroness. There are small panels of 18th century figurative tiles both inside and outside the church. From the churchyard there are magnificent views.
