Quelfes, Parish village in Olhão, Portugal.
Quelfes spans across 28 square kilometers of land in the Algarve region, featuring traditional Portuguese architecture and residential neighborhoods near the coast.
The parish gained independence in 1695 when local residents successfully petitioned to separate from Olhão due to population growth and fishing industry development.
The Feira de Maio festival brings together local artisans, merchants, and residents for three days of traditional crafts, food, and community celebrations.
Visitors can reach the parish office on weekdays from 9 AM to 5 PM to obtain information about local services and upcoming community events.
The Roman bridge stands as an engineering feat from ancient times, connecting different sections of the village across a water channel.
