Angel of Portugal Memorial

Highlight • Monument

A poignant memorial dedicated to the victims of the Entre-os-Rios Bridge collapse in 2001. 59 people, passengers of a bus and 3 cars, drowned when the construction weakened by years of unchecked sand extraction collapsed after a heavy storm. In addition to the most visible element, the Angel of Portugal, there's a chapel and a staircase leading down to the river.

Marmoiral da Boavista (Marmoiral de Sobrado)

Highlight • Monument

Marmoiral da Boavista is one of the oldest medieval marble monuments in Portugal. Some authors attribute its construction to the passage of Queen St. Mafalda's funeral procession. The destination of the procession would have been the Arouca osteiro.
