São Francisco Church
★★★★✮
Originally a Gothic church, from the XIV century that transformed itself in a baroque splendour.
An excellent example of how the century XVII and XVIII invaded the old churches with gold, here you will find one of the most beautiful European Jesse Tree.
The carvings, in the São Francisco Church, are something that should be highlighted because it makes an impressive visual spectacle. The church is Cultural Heritage of Humanity - UNESCO since 1996
