Church of São Pedro de Rates

Highlight • Religious Site

The Monastery of São Pedro de Rates (Portuguese: Mosteiro de Rates) is a former Benedictine abbey located in the parish of São Pedro de Rates, in the municipality of Póvoa de Varzim, in the Porto district, northern Portugal.

All that remains of the former monastery complex today is the Romanesque church Igreja de São Pedro de Rates, also known as the Românica de Rates, dedicated to its patron saint, São Pedro de Rates. Due to its art-historical significance as the "nucleus" of Portuguese Romanesque architecture and its historical significance for the emerging Kingdom of Portugal, the church was registered and protected as a National Monument in 1910.

Viana do Castelo Town Hall

Highlight • Historical Site

The Municipal Palace of Viana do Castelo, or Viana do Castelo Town Hall, is located in the historic center, on the square where the old So Tiago Gate once stood, providing access to the city's walled city. Built in the first decade of the 16th century by order of Manuel XVI, it was later also used as a chain store, a bread and flour market, a library, and is now a cultural center.

The building's style and layout fit in with the Gothic tradition.
