Evora is considered a seat of learning with its University founded in 16th Century by Cardinal Dom Henrique. Within the surrounding wall the most prominent feature is the 2nd or 3rd Century ruins of a Roman Temple dedicated to Goddess Diana. Another attractive feature is the 15th Century Convento dos Lóios. The city’s 13th century cathedral took 50 years to build and is reminiscent of a fortress. The main square with its 16th Century fountain has a sad history. Among other events, Dom João II witnessed the beheading by his orders of his brother-in-law. Equally unpleasant were the sights caused by the Inquisition in this public place. A macabre reminder is the Capela dos Ossos in the 15th Century Igreja de São Francisco - where the bones of 5,000 monks lie. There are several museums - the Museu de Arte Sacra, Galeria de Arte Casa Cadaval, the Museu de Artes Decorativas Religiosas and the Museu de Évora. The museum, formerly the palace of the Bishop, built with many worked stones from previous buildings in the city, has some outstanding religious items.

Overview

Introduction

Evora, Portugal, a lively university town 95 mi/150 km southeast of Lisbon, has a macabre attraction: The chapel in the church of Sao Francisco is fashioned from the skulls and bones of 5,000 monks. The bones and skulls were treated as design elements, used like mosaic tiles to create patterns in the walls and columns and around windows. This place is not for the squeamish—one skeleton, in tattered robes, hangs from the ceiling like a dreary windsock on a still day.

Even without the Chapel of Bones, as it is called, Evora would still draw plenty of travelers—it's a good example of a walled medieval city and has fine architecture dating from the Roman era, including the base and columns from a small temple. The interior of the Church of the Loios is covered with beautiful azulejos. Red-roofed, whitewashed buildings line incredibly narrow cobblestoned streets. Wend your way from the church to the university, seek out the arts and crafts galleries, then just stroll through the residential neighborhoods—the town, a UNESCO World Heritage site in its entirety, has a wonderful atmosphere.

Evora is a good base to explore the surrounding region, which is considered to be the bread basket of Portugal. About 30 mi/48 km northeast of Evora is Vila Vicosa, where the possessions of Dom Manuel II, Portugal's last king, are found in the palace of the Duke of Braganca.

Other towns to consider are Arraiolos (intricately cross-stitched rugs), Estremoz (whitewashed houses and a good market), Borba (a great place for antiquing) or the charming hilltop village of Monsaraz.
