Located in Largo de São João Baptista, in the area known as Vaginhas, in São João Baptista, Entroncamento municipality.
Small and welcoming, this chapel has a modest yet charming appearance, with a simple facade, a small bell, and a cross at the top. It is integrated into a quiet and wooded area.
This is a chapel of local historical value. It is one of the first chapels in the area and is associated with ancient traditions, including connections to Templar gatherings.
It is not regularly open to the public but can be visited by prior arrangement. It also occasionally opens for religious or cultural events, such as the Chapters of the Templar Commandery of Cardiga.
Religious service is held on Mondays, at 6:00 PM.
The interior shows signs of wear, with visible infiltrations on the walls. Despite this, it retains its symbolic value and is sought after for its simplicity and history.
Ideal for those who appreciate discreet places of worship, peaceful locations, and lesser-known historical curiosities. The space conveys serenity and invites contemplation.
