Church classified as a national monument in 1910 and part of the Unesco World Heritage in Porto.

The rather undecorated exterior hides a very baroque interior, filled with wooden and gold altars. It's a bit overwhelming, but it's still worth a little detour - if only to admire the remains of the old city wall, which are just a few metres away, and the view of the Douro. The church of Santa Clara was built at the beginning of the 15th century and has been renovated several times. It was declared a national monument in 1910 and is part of the UNESCO World Heritage. Please note that pictures inside are not allowed.

Igreja Santa Clara à Porto, Portugal
Située à Porto au Portugal, l’Igreja Santa Clara est une assez grande église au portail bien ouvragé. J’y étais cependant au moment d’un mariage et j’ai dû me contenter de son bel extérieur. Un panneau à l’extérieur laissait supposer que l’église possédait un intérieur richement doté et bien pourvu en dorures qui m’a donné bien des regrets de ne pouvoir les admirer. Je suis donc allée me promener vers les vestiges de l’ancienne muraille de la ville, très proches.

Une église plus, plus...de dorures!
si l'exterieur est sobre, quel choc en entrant! des dorures en veux tu ,en voilà.
et quelle merveille quand un rayon de soleil éclaire l'intérieur. A l'entrée, un tour d'abandon.
