Chapel of Santa Iria
Church
Open Details
Crossing the bridge over the Nabao River, you can come across the Catholic Church of St. Irina, the martyress, around whose name the whole legend was folded. It is believed that she was very beautiful and it offended the men who proposed to her and were refused, motivated by the promise of celibacy. Then the rumors of adultery with one of the noble men named Brittany were spread about her. He couldn't bear such a shame and couldn't find anything better than killing a girl. Then the Christians of Tomar buried her, spreading the story about her and making her a saint.
Saint Irene is believed to be the patron saint of Tomar, and the church in her honor is worth learning more about the history and culture of the city, as well as to appreciate its architectural features.
