Sameiro

Inebriated by the beauty of the top of Sameiro mountain, Fr Martinho thought of erecting a monument there to perpetuate the triumph of Mary Immaculate and the memory of the Dogmatic Definition of the Immaculate Conception. A pedestal was erected in 1863. A sculpture of the Immaculate Conception was placed on it, cut from a block of marble by the sculptor Emídio Carlos Amatucci. The first chapel was built and consecrated on 10 August 1877.

Bom Jesus Do Monte

Located in the city of Braga, in the north of Portugal, the Bom Jesus do Monte sanctuary is built to the west and has wide views, sometimes to the ocean itself, over the entire city of Braga, the Bracara Augusta founded in Roman times from which it is historically inseparable. This cultural landscape evokes the Christian Jerusalem, recreating a sacred hill crowned by a church built between 1784 and 1811. The sanctuary illustrates a European tradition of creating Sacri Monti, including a series of chapels with sculptures evoking the Passion of Christ, as well as fountains, allegorical sculptures and formal gardens. The granite buildings have whitewashed stucco façades framed by exposed stonework. The famous Staircase of the Five Senses, with its walls, steps, fountains, statues and other ornamental elements, is the estate's most emblematic Baroque work.
