  1. A

    Igreja de Misericórdia

    The 16th-century Igreja de Misericórdia, opposite the Arco da Vila, has a remarkable Manueline portico, the only remnant of an earlier chapel to withstand the 1755 earthquake.

  2. B

    Igreja de São Francisco

    For more dazzling woodwork, head to the frenzied 18th-century baroque interior of the Igreja de São Francisco, with tiles depicting the life of St Francis.
