San Gonzalo of Lagos

San Gonzalo is the patron of lagos, so this monument was erected in his honor in the highest area of the promenade (known as Chao Queimado), which also looks out over the ocean and beaches. The monument was funded by public subscription and made by the artist Tolentino Abegoaria. It's a granite ornamental fountain and in the center is a platform with a bronze statue of the saint.

Bienheureux

Goncalo de Lagos est un "bienheureux" aux yeux de l'église catholique ; c'est la ferveur populaire qui le considère comme un saint. Par souscription publique, un monument lui a été élevé face à la mer à Lagos. La statue témoigne d'une grande piété, le prêtre de bronze bénissant les pêcheurs de l'Algarve de son crucifix. Goncalvo de Lagos vécut de 1360 à 1422, date à laquelle il décéda au couvent dominicain de Torre Vedras à Lisbonne.
