Capela dos Ossos Start your tour at the Capela dos Ossos, one of Évora’s most emblematic monuments. This chapel, built in the 17th century on the initiative of three Franciscan monks, is famous for its walls and pillars decorated with thousands of human bones. The phrase “We bones who are here for you wait” at the entrance to the chapel is an invitation to reflect on the transience of life.
Praça do Giraldo Following your stroll, head for Praça do Giraldo, the vibrant heart of the city. This square is a meeting point for residents and visitors alike, surrounded by historic buildings and inviting cafés. It’s the perfect place to take a break and enjoy Évora’s architecture and welcoming atmosphere.
Roman Temple of Évora (Temple of Diana) The next stop is the Roman Temple of Évora, also known as the Temple of Diana. This monument, dating from the 1st century, is a testimony to the Roman presence in the Iberian Peninsula and is considered one of the best preserved Roman temples in Portugal. Its imposing structure is an unmissable landmark in the city.
Évora Cathedral End your itinerary with a visit to Évora Cathedral, the largest medieval cathedral in Portugal. Built between the 12th and 13th centuries, the cathedral combines Romanesque and Gothic elements and offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the city from its terrace. Inside, admire the magnificent altar and the sacred art museum which houses precious relics.
