The Chapel of Pinheiro e Cabiçalva is located within the residential area of Pinheiro, a quiet zone belonging to the locality of Pinheiro, in the municipality of Ourém. This location allows the chapel to be well integrated into the community's life, functioning as a point of reference and a space of tranquility at the heart of the urbanization. Surrounding the chapel is the serene environment characteristic of small localities, inviting a moment for reflection.
This place of worship is not a recent construction, but rather an evolution. The Chapel of Pinheiro e Cabiçalva resulted from an extensive intervention on an old religious structure already existing at the same site. The recent, profound works were designed to expand the original building, giving it a new dimension. The main objective was to provide a space with greater dignity and comfort, which would meet the aspirations and needs of the local population.
The chapel symbolizes the strong connection between the community and its religious heritage. Its revitalization was made possible thanks to the support and participation of the local population, who actively contributed to the completion of the works. This collaboration reflects the value that the inhabitants of Pinheiro attribute to this space, not only as a place of celebration, but also as a meeting point and a space for sharing that enriches collective life. The chapel thus serves as a testament to the community's dedication to its place of faith.
