Capela de Santo António (Chapel of Santo António)

It is not known when this chapel situated next to the river Rio Guadiana in the lower section of the town of Alcoutim was founded, but it could have belonged to the Count of Alcoutim.
Inside, the neoclassical altar decorated with marbled paint is particularly worthy of note.
At the moment, this chapel houses the Museum of Sacred Art of Alcoutim where the exhibition “A Look at the Churches of Alcoutim” gives visitors the opportunity to view an interesting collection of sacred art from the municipality’s various temples.
