Between Figueira and Raposeira is a small isolated chapel, dedicated to Nossa Senhora de Guadalope, where it is known that Henry the Navigator used to attend Mass. Built by the Knights Templars, this church was the earliest to be dedicated to Nossa Senhora de Guadaloupe. The miracle of Our Lady at Guadaloupe was in 1320, and the cult was introduced into Portugal in 1340. There is also a connection to St. Luke. Both these saints are patrons of sailors.
