Chapel of Nossa Senhora de Baluarte
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
On the most Eastern tip of the Island of Mozambique lies the Chapel of Nossa Senhora de Baluarte. The Chapel is situated outside the Fort of Sao Sebastiao from which it can be reached through a gate.
Built by the Portuguese in 1522, the chapel is considered to be the oldest European building in the southern hemisphere. It is also considered to be one of the finest examples of Manueline vaulted architecture in Mozambique.
