Carmo Church

Carmo Church
It was originally part of the first Carmelite Convent of all the Iberian Peninsula.

It was from here that the monks who founded the Convento do Carmo, in Lisbon, departed.

One can still admire in some of the chapels the Gothic style adopted in the original building, but it was altered over the ages and later influenced by the Renaissance.

Nossa Senhora do Carmo is the patron saint of Moura since the 13th century; the festivities dedicated to Our Lady always start on the first day of October, and this period is chosen by many people to visit and get to know the town.
