It is located next to the mythical National Road 2, between the villages of Salvadorinho and Vale de Cortiças, in the parish of São Miguel do Rio Torto, municipality of Abrantes.
The façade has typical elements of rural baroque, with curved shapes and a simple bell tower. The yellow frame of the doors and windows stands out on the white wall, already worn by time.
It is in ruins, which gives it a certain mystical and nostalgic air. The surrounding vegetation is beginning to take over the building, making it a curious place for those who like to explore abandoned places.
Ideal for those who appreciate photography of forgotten heritage. The colors, textures and natural light create a unique environment for visual records.
The chapel seems to have belonged to a nearby agricultural property, suggesting a history linked to the rural life of the region.
Despite not being classified as a monument, it is an example of the hidden heritage along the EN2, which deserves attention and valorization.
