The Church of Santa Clara is located in the heart of Sabugueiro, more precisely in Largo de Santa Clara. This outdoor space surrounding the church invites a pause and integrates into the visit to the religious building.
The construction of the Church of Santa Clara dates back to the late 16th century. Its architecture follows the Mannerist style, often described as 'plain architecture' ('arquitetura chã'), notable for its simplicity and harmony of lines.
Inside the church, one of the elements that capture attention are the tile panels. Dating from the 18th century, these ceramic coverings adorn the side walls, adding a touch of color and history to the space and contrasting with the sobriety of the main structure.
