Church of Nossa Senhora da Agonia, 18th-century Baroque church in Viana do Castelo, Portugal
The church features an octagonal nave design with painted ceilings, gilded altarpieces, and a wooden central staircase added in the 19th century.
The site's religious significance began in 1674 with a chapel dedicated to the Good Jesus of the Holy Sepulchre, transforming into the current church by 1759.
The annual Romaria festival after August 15th includes parades with giant papier-mâché figures, traditional costumes, and celebrations for maritime safety.
The church stands on Rua de Monserrate Campo da Agonia, accessible by walking west along Avenida Conde da Carreira from Viana do Castelo Station.
The bell tower from 1868 remains separate from the main structure, allowing pilgrims to move freely during religious processions and celebrations.
