Description
On the south façade, there is a door with a tendency to be broken, formed by four staves. On the façades of the chancel, three cracks are torn, the sides of which are covered by cornices on simple cantilevers or decorated with pearls and faces, topped by a frieze carved with rows of quadrangles. The gable of the headboard is topped by a flowered cross and cast in the shape of a rhombus.
Inside, the perfect round triumphal arch is based on imposes decorated by floral motifs of six petals centered by a pearl. At the head, above the gap, is embedded in the wall, a vaulted niche with a prominent frame, which houses the image of Nossa Senhora da Piedade.
Its uniqueness is also reflected in the rural environment that remains and the small urban center with medieval structure.
