History
In 1499, King D. Afonso V made Gomes Martins de Lemos the 1st Lord of Trofa. In 1522, his grandson Duarte de Lemos, 3rd Lord of Trofa, ordered the construction of a funerary chapel in the parish of Trofa.[1]
Between 1536 and 1539, the parietal tombs and statuary were constructed.[1]
Between the 18th and 19th century the main body of the church was constructed.[1]
In 1978, one of the legs of the "praying" statue was encountered broken.[1]
On 1 June 1992, the property fell under the authority of the IPPARInstituto Português do Património Arquitetónico (Portuguese Institute for Architectural Patrimony), by decree 106F/92 (Diário da República, Série 1A, 126).[1][2]
A conditional approval was obtained on 16 November 1998, from the civil parish authority of Trofa and municipality of Águeda, to expand and redefine the size of the churchyard.[1]
In 2006, the parochial church of Trofa do Vouga was closed to the public since August, in order to precede with work to conserve, restore and promote the religious heritage; work began on 17 August 2006, then concluded in April 2007.[1]
