Presentation
This is a church with modern lines, built in the area of Corgo de Bustos, where there is an image of Nossa Senhora de Fátima, in a rock niche, on one side of the church.
Observations
There used to be an old Parish Church, which resulted from the adaptation and extension of an old chapel the transept of which dated back to 1733 and in a niche above the door was a small sculpture of S. Lourenço, made of stone, from the 16th century. That church was dedicated to S. Lourenço and had to wooden sculptures from the 18th century: S. Lourenço and Santo António. There was also a sculpture of the Virgin Mary breast-feeding Jesus, Nossa Senhora do Leite or Virgem do Leite.
