Évora Catholic History Tour
Overview
The traces of Catholic influence are quite strong in Évora, a city that was a second capital to the Portuguese kingdom in the 15th and 16th centuries, a time when the line separating religion and power was particularly blurry.
Visit some of the most remarkable churches in town, debate with your guide the meaning and purpose behind the construction of the Chapel of Bones, learn about the creation of a 16th century Jesuit university and ponder on the results of a more fanatical approach to the Counter-Reformation embodied by the Inquisition.
