Visigothic kingdom

São Gião

Today: Nazaré, Portugal

Years
601–711

A small church on the Quinta de São Gião, by the dunes and half a kilometre from the sea, five kilometres south of Nazaré. It was found in 1961 and taken for 7th century Visigothic; later studies date it later, to about the 10th century, with Visigothic carvings reused in its walls. It has been a national monument since 1986.
