It is a set of seven oratories, with the Steps of the Cross, in Baroque style, built in the 18th century. They are distributed by the historical frame of the village and, during Holy Week, they are the stage for manifestations of faith. The façade consists of two pilasters with Ionian capitals, which support a broken pediment in the form of voluptas. The pediment is topped in the center by a cross and two spiers at the ends.

The niche that is located in Travessa da Matriz, of 18th century architecture, is similar to the others. The Lord of the Garden is composed of an anguished Christ, on his knees, and an Angel who presents him with the cup of bitterness on the night of His Prison.
Embedded in the wall of Quinta das Penas, at the confluence of Rua das Penas with Rua da Calçada, is the niche of Senhor do Pretorio. Here, the Lord has his hands tied and his robe purple.
On national road no. 13, a few meters north of the connection to the hospital, there is Senhor da Prisão, where Christ is attached to the column.
In the direction of Arrabalde, there is Senhor da Cana Verde, which is preserved in its chapel-niche, built at the junction of this street with Travessa do Arrabalde.
At the beginning of Rua Queiróz Ribeiro, at the confluence with Travessa do Senhor dos Passos, there is the chapel of Senhor das Oliveiras. This niche presents the Lord when the cross is given to him.
Located on Rua Costa Pereira, Senhor dos Passos carries the cross and, finally, the last of the niches is dedicated to Senhor dos Martírios, which is attached to the wall of Solar dos Castros. Source: https://www.cm-vncerveira.pt/
