The Small chapel of great simplicity was built at the beginning of the 12th century in Romanesque style probably at the order of Count Henry. It has a symbolic link to the fouding of the nation as tradition states that King Afonso Henriques was baptised here. Inside, the floor is paved with the sepulchres attributed to the noble warriors who fought alongside him at the founding of the nation. It is classified as a National Monument.
