The Church of Santo André in Vila Boa de Quires at the beginning of the 13th century belonged to the Order of São Bento, having passed the parish church between 1309 and 1320.
Igreja 4635-709 Vila Boa de Quires
Marco de Canaveses
The arrangement and sculpture of the main portal follow models used in the churches of the Monasteries of Paço de Sousa and São Pedro de Roriz. The south side portal, which shows a bull and a lion that support the tympanum, has capitals similar to those of the Church of São Gens de Boelhe.
It integrates the Route of the Romanesque of Tâmega and Sousa.
