The Church of Porto Covo ({{lang-pt|Igreja de Porto Covo}}) is Baroque and Neoclassic church in the civil parish, municipality of Sines, in the Atlantic coast of the Portuguese Alentejo. The church's austere lines is a morphological hybridization of the styles employed during the reign of Queen Maria I.[1] In the widespread typology of regional architecture, the Baroque elements are evident in the lintels and trim curves, framed in a composition that is, generally, more rigid then in the gable design.[1][2]

History

Around the end of the 18th century, the church was constructed within the remodelling of the Largo Marquês de Pombal by Joaquim Guilherme d'Oliveira.[1][2]

Architecture

The church is a rare example, important for the group details and composition, including pinnacles and triumphal arch, different from the vernacular characteristics of other temples of the same size in the region.[2]

The church is located in the centre of a large square (Largo Marquês de Pombal), aligned with trees and a central garden.

It has a longitudinal plan, formed of a nave and a narrower presbytery, with lateral sacristy and tiled articulated spaces.[2] The principal facade is oriented towards the north, defined by accented corners, a finial gable crowned by a cross (resting on a plinth in masonry) and stone urns on plinths crowning the corners.[1][2] The church portal is an arched frame, surmounted by a big window with ornate semi-circular frame.[2] The lateral facades are simple with no doorways or windows.

Interior

The unique nave is covered in wood with three plans, with a lower footer in blue and white azulejo tile.[2] Within this space, framed by the same portal and window, to the right, is a basin for holy water, while a triumphal arch framed in stonework, with pilasters and single step.[2]

The presbytery is covered with vaulted-ceiling, with cornice, while the main altar is preceded by two steps and framed within a gilded retable.[2] A central rounded niche is flanked by pilasters with volutes and upper architecture in multiple lobes, framed by a medallion with the monogram AM circled by glint and urns.[1][2] On either side are corbels and false niches gilded and painted. On the left wall is a doorway to the sacristy.[2]

The church is constructed of stone masonry and mortar primarily, plastered and whitewashed, with the portal and secondary elements in stone.[2] In addition, the elements of the church include tile covering of straw, wood-lined ceilings with dome plastered and whitewashed, tiled floors, wooden window frames, gilded altarpiece and polychromatic tiles.[2]
