Revora Church

The Original church of Our Lady of Victory (Nossa Senhora da Vitoria) in Revora, was built in 1653. It was burnt and destroyed in 1705, following which it was re-built. The present church, built at a short distance from the previous one, was blessed on 31 December 1952 and is run by the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin since 1982.[2]
