Situated in the small village of Marquinho, municipality of Ansião, in a calm and rural environment, perfect for those who enjoy exploring local traditions.
A small and simple chapel, with whitewashed walls and a traditional regional tile roof.
It stands out for its small stone bell-gable with a cross at the top and an arched wooden door, surrounded by a stone frame.
Surrounded by old houses and nature, it offers a tranquil and welcoming atmosphere.
The chapel represents the faith and religious tradition of the local community, being a typical example of the rural chapels in the central region.
The contrast between the white of the chapel, the green of the vegetation, and the blue of the sky creates an ideal setting for photographs.
Located on Rua da Escola, easily accessible and clearly visible to those passing through Marquinho.
Although the interior is not visible in the images, it typically houses a small altar with religious images. It's a brief but interesting stop for anyone visiting the municipality of Ansião.
