At the highest point of the upper old town lies the university with the baroque clock and bell tower, the Biblioteca Joanina with around 300,000 precious books and the Capela de São Miguel. Right next to this part of the university, which dates from the Baroque and earlier epochs, a number of faculty buildings, colossal statues and a monumental open staircase were built during the time of the fascist Estado Novo in the 1940s, to which a large part of the historically grown upper old town was sacrificed fell.
