The Solar do Ferrão, one of the finest houses (17C) in the city, is home to heritage services and a Museum of Sacred Art (Museu Abelardo Rodrigues). The collection holds oratories, crucifixes, miniatures, roca saints (procession statues) and statues dating from the 16C-20C. The oldest pieces are 16C ivory statuettes from Portuguese colonies in Africa. The meticulous museum design was revamped in 2006. Texts in English.
