Visit the Church of Alpedrinha

The Church of Alpedrinha have been built, probably in the century. XII, four years later was restored, and it was changed throughout the front face, which has given the various misconceptions concerning the date of its construction.
Later the church underwent repairs and modifications, and even the Cross of the Order of Christ, who boasted on the front was torn off and disappeared.

It has seven altars: Altar and chapel, the altar of Our Lady of the Rosary altar of the Lord of Souls, St Anne's altar, altar of S. John the Baptist altar of Our Lady of the High Heavens and the altar of the Blessed Sacrament.




It also has a magnificent pipe organ of the eighteenth century, at a height of three meters and a half, which has entered the old sacristy. After many years of inactivity of the body, because it is dilapidated, was restored by Master Antonio Simões, organ tuner Condeixa-a-Nova, who had been handed virtually every organ in the country. And on January 27, 1985 the national reentered the service.
