Built in the 16th century, the Parish Church of Santa Cruz was renovated in the 18th century, when it also received its present shape with three naves. The façade includes a black stonework doorway, attractive windows and a bell tower. The interior’s treasures include an important 16th century painted wooden altarpiece depicting Christ’s way of the Cross, a masterpiece of 16th century Portuguese painting attributed to Cristóvão de Figueiredo. Other notable features include the 18th century azulejo panels and the 16th century Flemish statues.
