The Sameiro Sanctuary, which construction started in the middle of the 19th century, is the second greatest centre of devotion to the Virgin Mary in Portugal, after Fátima.
The Temple, finished in the 20th century, has lovely interiors.
In front of the Temple is located a majestic and vast stairway, on the top of which are two high pillars with the images of Virgin Mary and the Heart of Jesus.
