Monuments
Halfway between Amarante and Lixa, to the north-west, is the well-preserved church of Freixo de Baixo, its Romanesque features still clearly visible.
Immediately notable is the quadrangular tower at the side of the church, a defensive feature that gives the building a slightly warlike appearance. The doorway is supported by six small columns, whose capitals are carved with religious and plant motifs.
