Capilla de Nuestra Señora de Lourdes / S. Juan Bautista

Marialva

Marialva

It can be found among traces of the Old Knights Templar Monastery. This chapel is located outside the walls, near the Anjo da Guarda Gate and was probably built in the 17th century. Some hundred years later it was decorated with polychromatic and gilded carved wood features. A new ceiling put in later hides the beams and boards painted with plant motifs. There are some graves caved into the rock between the chapel and the walls.
