Capela de Nossa Senhora da Guia

Capela de Nossa Senhora da Guia

Probably this chapel would already exist in 953, being referenced, in 1059, in the inventory of goods belonging to the Monastery of Guimarães, but designated as the chapel of S. Julião. In addition to the use of a religious nature, the chapel initially functioned as a support point for the defense of the bar.

With an irregular compound plan, it has beautiful tiles from the 17th and 18th centuries and paneled ceilings decorated with biblical scenes or figures of saints.

At the south top of the chapel there is a high staircase, topped by a platform, where a stone cross was placed in 1940 and from where you can see a beautiful panoramic view of the city, the mouth of the river and the sea.
