Behind the transept of the church, in line with the choir, is the Pantheon of King Duarte, commonly known as the "Unfinished Chapels." It is structured in the form of an octagonal plan with an entrance on one axis and seven radiating chapels separated by small triangular sections. The construction of this chapel, initiated by King Duarte, began around 1434, the first year of his reign. The death of King Duarte in 1438 prevented the completion of the new funerary chapel, the construction of which had been driven by King Duarte's consistent personal and familial attitude. In the Duarte Pantheon, the double tomb of King Duarte and Queen Leonor was not housed here in the Axis Chapel until the 1940s, in what may have been a definitive reunion with history.

I added a photo of a nice guy who sells refurbished old bikes... an inspiration in our super wasteful world!

Beautiful 16th century Manueline style church.
