[PT]Fundada no século XII, dessa traça quase nada subsiste, devido às obras realizadas nos séculos XVI, XVIII e XIX. No entanto, o templo conserva algum interesse e merece uma visita.

Na fachada da igreja existe uma placa que diz "A 25 de Julho de 1551 nessa igreja foi baptizado Francisco Sanches grande médico e filosofo do renascimento".
