One of the places in the south-western Algarve where Prince Henry the Navigator lived, Tradition says he stayed in a house which has now lost its original character and of which all that has been identified is the lintel of a 16th century door. There are several houses with 15th and 16th century doors.
Main Church - Of the original church, founded in the 16th century all that remains are the Manueline doorways at the front and side,. the bell tower which culminates in an octagonal pyramid, the arch of the main altar and at the back, a curious corbel with a human face.
Hermitage of Nossa Senhora de Guadalupe (Our Lady of Guadeloupe) - According to local tradition this was a place of prayer for Prince Henry the Navigator.
