Igreja Paroquial de Ovar, Parish church in Ovar, Portugal
The church features a prominent bell tower integrated into its main facade, displaying polychrome tiles with biblical themes from the Aleluia factory.
Dating back to the 16th century, this medieval-style church stands as the oldest religious structure in Ovar, featuring three naves in its architectural design.
The church interior contains seven altarpieces from the 17th to 20th centuries, including two Mannerist side altars and a Rococo main altarpiece.
