The Parish Church of Pedreira is located within the Pedreira area, a region that is part of the locality of Prado, in the municipality of Tomar. Its position in this rural and tranquil environment offers visitors an authentic perspective on the landscape and local life, far from the hustle and bustle of major centers. The location allows for an appreciation of the simplicity that characterizes the surroundings and the community itself.
The construction of the Parish Church of Pedreira dates back to the 1960s, reflecting an architectural style that prioritizes functionality and sobriety. Since its construction, the temple has undergone various improvement interventions, both in its exterior structure and its interior. These adaptations and conservations over time have allowed the church to continue playing its central role in the life of the Pedreira community.
The temple is dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, serving as a point of unity and faith for the inhabitants of the region. In addition to the usual religious services, the church is the venue for an important annual celebration. On the last weekend of July, the feast in honor of its patron saint takes place, an event that brings the community together and enlivens the Pedreira area, marking a significant moment in the local and cultural calendar.
