The invocation of S. Peter, is the most important and richest of Temples which retain the Municipality of Lousă. The building that today we can admire, date of mid-eighteenth century, even a date recorded in the window indicates that frontaria and 1750.

At the right side of the facade, and beyond that, being an eighteenth stage, stands at an elegant pletórica tower of stone, but remate bolboso square. The red sandstone were constructed calls for attention. Projected to have four bells, but according to the records, has never had more than three, of which we know they are dated 1822, 1893 and 1904, the second of the authors of Sebastian Sorrilha of Cantanhede, and the latest in Alves Ferreira, I had a workshop Alvaiázere.

Olá Américo. Esse cabo elétrico estraga tudo. As côres fortes da torre e do céu fazem sobressair o branco das fachadas. Arquitetura bonita. Parabéns
