Chapelle d'Água de Pau, Religious chapel in Água de Pau, Portugal.

The hexagonal chapel stands at Pico da Figueira, featuring a single altar with a statue of Nossa Senhora do Monte carved in Lisbon.

The chapel was completed in 1931 by Teófilo Tavares do Canto and his wife to commemorate reported appearances of the Virgin Mary to their daughter.

The chapel remains a center for religious ceremonies where local residents gather for masses and community events throughout the year.

Visitors can access the chapel through marked paths, and information plates guide them through the religious and historical elements of the site.

A replica of the Dozulé Glorious Cross was installed behind the chapel in 1998 with permission from the Diocese of Angra.
