(Translated by Google) 21st century and they still use bells to tell the hour and half hour. It is impossible to sleep if you live near the church, it is a torment. Archaic way of running a church, the rest is great, very beautiful and historical.

(Translated by Google) The parish of São João Evangelista de Mindelo was a curacy of the presentation of the Convent of São Salvador de Moreira and, later, of the presentation of the ordinary, according to the "Parish Statistics" of 1862, in the old municipality of Maia. It benefited from the charter of Maia, granted by D. Manuel, in Évora, on December 15, 1519. In 1839 it appears in the district of Porto and, in 1852, in that of Vila do Conde. The church dates from the 18th century.
