This cathedral is worth a visit with its baroque interior. Its cloister from the 14th century presents beautiful azulejos paintings.

The fortress church that is this cathedral is worth more than a visit. Its massive exterior makes it very interesting, but its construction in Romanesque style has evolved over time. In the 18th century, several alterations were made to give the interior the baroque style of the time. An altar weighing several hundred kilos of silver is one of these modifications. The 14th century cloister combines a very pure gothic style with large paintings in azulejos. Its square, dominated by the façade of the Episcopal Palace, offers a beautiful view of the city.

L'intérieur de la cathédrale était malheureusement en travaux au début du mois. Toutefois, on peut visiter le cloître. A ne pas manquer avec ses azulejos et ses salles d'expositions

Très belle cathédrale situé dans le quartier de Bathala (l'accès est gratuit).
Le cloître quant à lui est payant (3 euros)

Superbe église forteresse. Beau cloître avec azulejos à l'étage. Remarquer quelque chose que la plupart des visiteurs ne voient pas : Dans le choeur et dans les quatre embrasures de l'étages, on y trouve les toutes-premières peintures en trompe-l'oeil, technique nouvelle pour l'époque.

L' austérité extérieure de l'édifice est impressionnante ! la vue sur le Douro en contrebas est vraiment jolie. Sa proximité avec la gare et ses ruelles commerçantes est appréciable...
