エヴォラのおすすめツーリングルート

The number of human skeletons is estimated at around 5,000 and comes from cemeteries and churches in the area, where Franciscan monks were often buried. Many of these skulls are inscribed with the name of the deceased—a truly impressive experience. The inscription above the entrance reads: "We bones who lie here wait until we get yours."

A must-see for anyone visiting Évora. Its morbid charm is fascinating, and the thousands upon thousands of bones serve as a reminder of one's own mortality. On the ceiling, you can discover various paintings and sayings about death and dying, and I would never have imagined how decoratively the bones were arranged in the chapel.

Giraldo Square is the main square in the city of Évora. It has undergone several changes over the years. Not so long ago, a traffic policeman stood there, directing the direction of Rua Cinco de Outubro, when cars circulated here and around the square. It was a parking lot and passenger pick-up point for a large fleet of taxis. It was the venue for meetings and business dealings among local farmers every Tuesday. Nowadays, it is largely occupied by the terraces of the surrounding restaurants and pastry shops. 👍🥾
