Historic
Villages"
The first settlement of the town had
emerged probably in the Lugar do
Calvário, the name of an old Via Sacra.
In this same place there is still a
rupestral sanctuary, today known as Park
Abel Botelho, who was an important
figure of Tabuaço distinguished as a
diplomat and a writer. 
The
Romanesque origin of the Mother Church
dates from the 14th century, whose signs
are well perceptible in its façade, as
well as in the chancel, although the
temple had been rebuilt in the ends of
the 17th century. Its façade is curious,
due to the modest tower of two bells
rise out of the frontal wall, on the
left. 
S.
Vicente Chapel is as modest as its
furniture: there is a small altarpiece
from the 17th century with a wooden
picture of S. Vicente and his mother
seated close to him, and a picture of
the black Saint Prebenda (17th century)
and a picture of Nossa Senhora with
Jesus. This picture is called Santa
Maria Romana.
In
Tabuaço, there are vestiges of some
manor houses, belongings of the noble
families of the Concelho. For example,
the manor house, the farm and Seclusion
of Freixinho. These buildings had become
the stage of the drama of Teresa and her
family, who were the protagonists of a
decaying social group in the turn of the
century. 
Jardim
Conde Ferreira garden is set in an
environment of harmonious tranquillity,
where not even the strong presence of a
Buçaco cedar is disturbing. Inside is,
perfectly adequate, the Municipal
Tourism Gallery, helpful space of
information and fulfilling of diverse
cultural events.
