Overview

Évora, the Pearl of the Alentejo!

Known as the Museum-City, Évora stands out for its rich historical heritage and university tradition. It stands beautiful and charming in the heart of the Alentejo region. In addition to being one of the most beautiful and interesting cities in Portugal, it is marked by the incomparable hospitality of its people.

Go back in time and visit the 1st century Roman Temple, the Evora Cathedral, the São Francisco Church that houses the chilling Chapel of Bones. Find out what gave the city the UNESCO World Heritage status. Enjoy free time for lunch and then head to Monsaraz Castle. A village surrounded by walls, which perpetuated the medieval atmosphere of its streets that accentuate a unique sensation as if Monsaraz remained frozen in time.

Igreja de Sao Francisco

Built in the 15th and 16th centuries, in Manueline-Mudejar and Renaissance style, to replace an earlier Gothic temple, of which there are still some remnants. It was adjacent to the Royal Palace, and seen as a Royal Church therefore important ceremonies were held there such as the marriage of Prince Afonso to Isabel of Castilla in 1490. The interior has a single nave, rectangular in shape and in the form of a Latin cross, emphasizing the Baroque high-altar and the Third Order of Saint Francis Chapel. The greatest popular curiosity resides in the Bones Chapel, of three naves completely covered in human bones (17th century).
