Cathedral next to the Plaza do Rei Dom Duarte

Rossio is the central square in Viseu and the starting point for an exciting walk through the city. Several streets branch off from here. It is worth discovering the sixteenth-century houses, which still have Gothic gargoyles and windows.

Usually open daily from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. The pilgrimage site has its origins in the time when Al-Mancor killed many nuns on his campaign in 982. Some managed to escape and hid a statue of the Madonna under a huge rock. Only 515 years later did a shepherd girl discover the Madonna and bring her home. However, the mother threw her into the fire and the girl, who had never been able to speak since birth, suddenly found her voice, protested loudly and took the Madonna out of the fire again. Subsequently, Lapa developed into a place of pilgrimage. Lapa and Santiago were once the two most important pilgrimage sites on the Iberian Peninsula.

Sé Catedral de Viseu and the Igreja da Misericordia, nice cafés, and a great view
