This Baroque church has gilded wood and walls dressed with azulejos which date from 1715. A door provides access to a small sacred museum where you can see attractive crucifixes.

The ramparts were built between the 14C and the 16C on top of older walls.

Built in the 17C the fort stretches into the sea and protects a small port from which the boat-trippers leave for Ponta da Piedade. You must cross the drawbridge to reach the interior of the courtyard. Exhibitions are mounted about the Great Discoveries in the rooms. The chapel is decorated with 17C azulejos and from the terrace there are attractive views over the town and the coast.

This wayside cross from the 16C has Christ on the cross on one side and on the other a Pietà.
