There was church from 16th century that was destroyed during the Lisbon earthquake in 1755. The head and the chancel are the only things that remain from that church. The whole building dates from 18th century whose works were supervised by the architect Pedro de Silva.

This building has an elongated rectangular ground plan following the neoclassical style, which we can clearly observe in the facades. The only elements that are not situated in the rectangular plan are the bell tower and the open chapel, rebuilt in 20th century.

    Estimados Señores :
    Rogaría de Ustedes, se sirvan informarme sobre alguna persona que se dedique a la investigación en los archivos de la parroquia de Fuenteheridos.
    Por la lejanía en que me encuentro desde Canarias no me permite hacer este tipo de trabajo por lo que deseo saber si alguien que sepa de localizar documentos quiera hacerse cargo de una pequeña investigación. Se le facilita donde está parada la investigación para que pueda seguir por una linea de investigación.
    Agradezco a aquellas personas que sepan hacerlo se pongan en contacto
    Saludos cordiales

    Manuel Rodriguez. desde Canarias
