Tips

The grounds of the old university are entered from Praça da Porta Ferrera through the Iron Gate from 1633. The various faculties are represented here by allegorical statues, medicine and law on the outside, theology and ecclesiastical teaching on the inside. Above the passage the kings Diniz and João III. and in the blasted gable the allegory of wisdom.

The gate to the large courtyard of the university, one of the landmarks of Coimbra and the university. It's definitely worth taking a closer look at this work of art as you walk through it.
