Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Oliveira, Medieval church in Guimarães, Portugal
The church exhibits Romanesque architecture with Gothic elements, featuring a large window depicting the genealogy of the Virgin and a bell tower from 1513.
Founded by Countess Mumadona Dias in 949, the church received significant modifications after King João I's victory at the Battle of Aljubarrota in 1385.
The structure maintains its position as a central religious gathering point within the Oliveira parish, connecting generations through traditional ceremonies and religious practices.
Visitors can access the church through the main entrance near the Padrão do Salado monument, with guided tours available during regular opening hours.
The church houses a collection of medieval religious artifacts, including original architectural elements preserved in the adjacent Alberto Sampaio Museum.
