Algarve Tourism - Alcoutim - Places Of Interest


Pereiro : Archaeological finds from the Roman period bear witness to the distant origins of this settlement. Many of the houses still retain the architecture typical of the Algarve uplands.

Main church : The main church is 16th century. It has a renaissance porch of great simplicity. The interior is composed of three naves, with columns topped with Doric capitals. There are 16th century retables in the side chapels. Among the numerous fine pieces of statuary, those of Nossa Senhora do Rosario (Our Lady of the Rosary), Nossa Senhora da Assuncao (Our Lady of the Assumption) and Apostolo Sao Pedro (St. Peter the Apostle) merit particular mention along with those of Sao Domingos (St. Dominic) and Nossa Senhora das Reliquias (Our Lady of the Relics), which came originally from former hermitages.

Near Gioes stand the ruins of the former medieval hermitage of Sao Domingos (St. Dominic). The Hermitage of Nossa Senhora da Oliveira (Our Lady of the Olive Tree) in Clarines is worth a visit. Dating from the end of the Middle Ages, it is associated with a tradition of appearances by the Virgin in an olive tree which, for that reason, was believed to have curative powers.

Vaqueiros : Some of the streets that frame the town's small, white church still bear witness to the picturesque traits of local vernacular architecture.

Main church : This is an elegant architectural ensemble which dates from the 16th century. The retable of the main altar and the "altar das Almas" (altar of souls) include painted wooden panels (16th century).
