The Igreja Matriz de São Clemente in Loulé is a 13th-century Gothic church built on the site of a former mosque. It features a striking ogival portal, a Baroque bell tower, and an interior with three naves and several side chapels. The church was severely damaged in the 1755 earthquake and later restored.

The church was built in the 13th century, presumably on the foundations of a mosque. The bell tower, which stands out with its gray stone, formerly served as a minaret for the Moors. In the 16th century, it was adapted as a church tower and adorned with Baroque decorations. Only the Gothic portal remains in its original state; otherwise, the church was rebuilt several times between the 16th and 18th centuries.
