The Saviour of Unhão is an important religious temple, thus reflecting the importance and scope of the settlement process in the region throughout the thirteenth century. Regardless of the transformations suffered in time, with profound alterations to the Romanesque construction, the epigraphy recording the Church Dedication, on January 28th 1165, was kept. This inscription is the oldest testimony of its history, since the known documented references only go as far back as 1220. The inscription commemorating the Dedication of the Church is engraved after the south wall is built, which allows dating that phase of construction or completion of the temple. Of modest proportions, Unhão has a single nave and rectangular chancel, whose greatest source of interest lies in its main portal, engraved in gable and composed of four round arch archivolts, decorated with geometric and botanic motifs, framing a tympanum filled with the typical hollow cross which is traditionally from Braga. The eighteenth and nineteenth centuries brought greater wealth to its interior, including altarpieces that flank the triumphal arch and the main altarpiece, carved and gilded, reporting its origin to the nineteenth century.
