This triple-nave Gothic-style church contains the tomb of Jorge, the last Master of the Order of Santiago.
The church, which lies within the original castle walls, was already well-known as a place of worship in the second half of the 15th Century. This triple-nave Gothic-style church contains the tomb of Jorge, the last Master of the Order of Santiago. 18th Century “carpet” tiles with the insignia of the order line the walls of the chancel, which also has a Manueline ribbed dome. After having been classified as a national monument, the church is now used as a top-drawer exhibition space. No religious services take place in the church.
