Small Romanesque church from the early 13th century, right next to Guimarães Castle. It's traditionally associated with the baptism of D. Afonso Henriques, Portugal's first king, although this is disputed since the church dates from after his birth. Together with the Castle and the Paço dos Duques, it's part of the group of national monuments on Monte Latito.
