The bell tower, as well as the foundations of the galilee and the visible remains of the cloister are part of the monumentality of the Monastery of Salvador de Freixo de Baixo. Implanted in a fertile valley, next to a watercourse, it still remains today as a monastic complex. The facade remains as a symbol of Romanesque architecture.
Rua do Mosteiro, Freixo de Baixo
Amarante
The main portal, composed of three archivolts, reveals capitals with animals and plant motifs, finely sculpted, while the interior deserves close observation due to the fresco paintings. Represented is the scene of the Adoration of the Magi, attributed to the workshop of Bravães I.
