The Church of mercy is located in the old town of Tavira. Climbing stairs that leave from the Plaza of the Republic we find it opposite. Its appearance outside, rather ramshackle, does not show the beauty of the interior, in panels of blue and white tiles lining part of the walls. They represent scenes from the life of Christ and his 14 works of mercy, the seven spiritual and bodily seven. The rest of the Church, Renaissance, is simple but the gilded altarpieces of the high altar and side chapels show taste by the ornament of the 18th century can be seen also in the capitals of the columns. You can also visit a small sacristy and gain access to the upper floor. A lady, at the entrance, gives information about the Church in Exchange for the will.

No último sábado assistimos a um fantástico concerto nesta lindíssima igreja. Para além do tributo à obra de Zeca Afonso pelos coros de Tavira e Quarteira, o jovem pianista Marcelo Montes, que ouvi pela primeira vez, deixou-me encantada. Parabéns por estas iniciativas. Só tenho pena de estar tão longe (Porto) e não poder ouvir mais vezes este tão promissor artista. Fernanda Leitão

Last Saturday we witnessed a fantastic concert in this beautiful church. In addition to the tribute to the work of Zeca Afonso by choirs of Tavira and Quarteira, the young pianist Marcelo Montes, who first heard, left me delighted. Congratulations on these initiatives. I'm sorry of being so far away (Porto) and not being able to hear more often this so promising artist. Fernanda Piglet
