The Igreja São Sebastião / Church of São Sebastião was originally built in the 14th century, when the building served as a hermitage consecrated to Nossa Senhora da Conceição. It was transformed into a church and dedicated to São Sebastião in the 16th century. The late-Gothic portico and the locally sculpted motifs of the lateral doorway are particularly noteworthy. The interior is formed by three naves separated by Doric columns. The church houses an exquisite statue of Our Lady of Grace, donated by D. João V. There is a small Bones Chapel in an annexe.
