Capela de São Bartolomeu

Trancoso
The chapel that has been preserved corresponds to the reconstruction ordered undertaken by the Town Hall in 1778. Built in the late-Baroque style and with a hexagonal floor plan, the pediment of the main facade and the openings are decorated with shells, scrolls, coronas and rosettes. On one of the windowless walls, there is a panel of ceramic tiles made in the 20th century at the Fábrica Faiança Battistini de Maria de Portugal (Lisbon), which refers to the fact the chapel was built in memory of the royal wedding anniversary of D. Dinis and D. Isabel de Aragão, celebrated in this village in 1282.
