It is located on a high point in the vicinity of Borba, providing a wide view over the surrounding Alentejo landscape.
Small hermitage with simple features, with a white facade and blue band at the base, typical of the region. It has a porch with open arches at the entrance, which gives it a welcoming and traditional air.
It is surrounded by a wide open space, ideal for photographs and to appreciate the tranquility of the place. The presence of informative panels on the exterior helps to contextualize its history and importance.
The interior is modest but well-kept. The altar stands out with a religious image, wooden benches and dark blue details that highlight the shapes of the chapel. The white walls contrast with the blue arches and frames, creating a simple but harmonious environment.
Inside you can see a wooden pulpit, embedded in one of the side walls, which shows the liturgical use of the space over time.
Ideal for those who like quiet places with historical and religious value. It is a good stopping point on a route through the Alentejo, especially for those looking for authentic and less touristy spaces.
