The Igreja Paroquial da Luz de Lagos is a parish church in the Luz district of Lagos, Faro, Portugal, built in 1521. The structure exemplifies a transitional architectural vocabulary spanning Manueline, Gothic, and Baroque styles, reflecting the evolving aesthetic preferences of early sixteenth-century Portuguese ecclesiastical design. Despite its historical significance as a cultural heritage site, the building currently lacks formal legal protection.
