Careful: During these months of December and January, it is impossible to pass through because approximately 200 meters of the road is flooded at the beginning, for those coming from the Chiqueda side.

Great Cathedral

A large and very beautiful religious monument

Gravel is very fun if you go with friends with some experience.

Pretty tree-lined passage, pleasant to ride on

The tombs of King Pedro I (1320–1367), known as Dom Pedro the Cruel, or the Just, and his lover Inês de Castro (1320–1355), located on both sides of the transept, still give the church significance and splendor today. The tombs are among the most important funerary sculptures of the Middle Ages, commissioned by Dom Pedro immediately after his accession to the throne in 1357 to house his lover Inês de Castro, executed by his father two years earlier, and himself after his death. The scenes on the tombs, some of which are elaborated to the point of being invisible, depict historical events from Portuguese history, but also from the lives of Dom Pedro and Inês de Castro. Some are of biblical origin or refer to mere mythical creatures. The iconography is, on the one hand, quite extensive, and, on the other, highly controversial. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kloster_Alcoba%C3%A7a

The medieval sacristy, measuring just over 100 m² and located at the end of the northern side of the transept, was replaced during the reign of King Manuel I (1495–1521) by a sacristy of approximately 250 m², adjacent to an atrium on the southeast side of the ambulatory. This sacristy, along with the chapel of Senhor dos Passos, was built at the same time as the construction of the chapel. Like the chapel itself, it was destroyed in the earthquake of 1755. During the reconstruction, the Manueline portals were preserved, one of the few remaining elements of this style in Alcobaça. At the end of the sacristy is the Chapel of the Relics. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kloster_Alcoba%C3%A7a

In the eastern aisle of the church, in an adjoining room, eight additional sarcophagi are located, in which Beatriz, the wife of Afonso III, and three of her children were buried. One sarcophagus housed the first wife of Afonso II, Dona Urraca. The history of the other sarcophagi is unknown. The sarcophagi are now empty and were resealed between 1996 and 2000. The adjoining building in which they are now housed was built as a result of repairs after the great flood of 1772. Previously, the sarcophagi stood in the south transept from the 16th century onwards, and before that, presumably in the nave.
