The Carmo Church was built in 1756 and is considered a fine example of late baroque architecture. The amazing azulejo tile panels to the sidewall depict scenes from the founding of the Carmelite order and were completed by Silvestre Silvestri in 1912. Inside are seven gilt carved altars by Francisco Pereira Campanha. The house that separates this church from the Carmelite Church is a metre wide and was occupied until the 1980s. Built to comply with a law that churches could not share a common wall, it is also said that it ensured chastity between the nuns and the monks!
