Sanctuary of Nossa Senhora da Lapa

Highlight • Religious Site

Usually open daily from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. The pilgrimage site has its origins in the time when Al-Mancor killed many nuns on his campaign in 982. Some managed to escape and hid a statue of the Madonna under a huge rock. Only 515 years later did a shepherd girl discover the Madonna and bring her home. However, the mother threw her into the fire and the girl, who had never been able to speak since birth, suddenly found her voice, protested loudly and took the Madonna out of the fire again. Subsequently, Lapa developed into a place of pilgrimage. Lapa and Santiago were once the two most important pilgrimage sites on the Iberian Peninsula.
