Igreja matriz de Loulé
Igreja matriz de Loulé, Historic church in Loulé, Portugal
The church features a pointed arch portal on its facade, a baroque decorated bell tower, and three naves with sculpted capitals.
The construction dates back to the 13th century when the Archbishop of Braga commissioned Dominican friars to build several temples in the Algarve.
The church columns incorporate Roman and Arabic materials, demonstrating the cultural layering of the region through the centuries.
The church stands in Largo da Matriz, with limited wheelchair access and visiting hours regulated by religious services.
The bell tower represents the adaptation of a 12th-century Muslim minaret, with the Portuguese coat of arms added to the vault.
