The Basilica of Saint Peter or the Basilica of São Pedro is located in Largo do Toural in the center of Guimarães and originally dates back to the 17th century, although the building we see today dates back to the 18th century. The church was occupied and used by French forces during the Peninsular War As a stable, today it boasts stunning neoclassical architecture, and it should be noted that only one of the two planned towers was built.
