The construction of the Chapel of Souls or Chapel of Santa Catarina dates back to the late eighteenth century, when the brotherhood of souls and Chagas of San Francisco passed from the monastery of Santa Clara to the chapel of Santa Catarina. The building has about 16,000 "azulejos" on its exterior facade.
The Trinity Church is concomitant with the building of the Porto City Hall. It was built during the first half of the 19th century and opened in 1841.
The church of Santo Ildefonso was rebuilt from 1730 to 1739, the first church (dating from the 13th century) having been found in ruins. Its facade is covered with azulejos.
The church of the congregation was built in 1703 on the site of a chapel dedicated to St. Anthony, dated 1662. The tiles and stained glass date from 1920.
