Vimieiro was a municipal seat between 1257 and 1855. Two charters are known, the first granted by D. Francisco Bruno Neves, Bishop of Évora, in 1257, and the second by D. Manuel I, King of Portugal, in 1512. In 1801, it consisted of the parishes of the town and Santa Justa. It then had 1,819 inhabitants and an area of 266 km². In 1849, it consisted only of the parish of the town. It was suppressed by the administrative reform of 1855, consequently losing its status as a town, a fact that the coat of arms with a mural crown of four visible towers still marks today.

A dolmen to which a house was attached. It consists of a burial chamber, of whose original structure 7 upright stones are still visible in situ. Two of the upright stones are embedded in the walls of the building. From the original corridor of the dolmen, one upright stone remains on the right side, on which a wall rises, not showing any traces of the mound. Since the dolmen has always been part of the daily life of the inhabitants of the house, it has been used for various domestic purposes such as a chicken coop, rabbit hutch and, currently, a storage place. The resident of Monte do Estanque even made a fire inside the dolmen. (Source: Wikipedia) The dolmen is located about 200 meters from the national road 2, but it is very well signposted.

The church operates under two names: Igreja de São João Evangelista / Igreja dos Lóios. It belonged to the Monastery of Lios, also known as the Convent of St. John the Evangelist, which was built in the 15th century on top of a medieval castle. The monastery itself was converted into the Pousada Convento Évora hotel in modern times and is now privately owned. The church, accessed through a Gothic portal, is notable for the magnificent tiled panels that cover the walls. They were created in 1711 by the master Antonio de Oliveira Bernardes and depict scenes from the life of St. Lawrence Justinian. Through an opening in the floor, one can see the crypt, which lies next to a Moorish cistern. Along the sides are chapels with fine examples of gilded wood carvings. It is considered one of the most beautiful churches in Portugal and a must-see.

The original palace was built in the 14th century next to the Tower of Évora, where Martim Afonso de Mello, a servant of the Royal Military Order of Saint Benedict of Aviz and a descendant of the Portuguese crown, ordered its construction. The palace was partially built on the Roman-Visigothic walls of the old castle of Évora, and traces of both remain in its buildings. At the rear of the palace, you can admire the extraordinary Torre das Cinco Quinas, the famous pentagonal tower that gave it its name. In addition to the large outdoor gardens and the numerous rooms and halls that make up the complex, it also houses the Casa Cadaval exhibition rooms, which house a collection of illuminated codices, sculptures, paintings, and armories with pieces from the 15th and 18th centuries.

고요한 마을 에보라의 역사적인 중심지에는 에보라 로마 신전(Templo Romano de Évora)이 있습니다. 이 도시의 랜드마크는 종종 디아나 신전이라고도 불리지만, 역사적인 관점에서 볼 때 로마의 사냥의 여신과는 아무런 관련이 없습니다. 최고신인 유피테르에게 봉헌되었을 가능성이 더 높습니다. 에보라 로마 신전은 아마도 아우구스투스 황제 통치 기간인 서기 1세기에 지어졌으며 나중에 클라우디우스 황제 때 개조되었습니다. 이 웅장한 건축물은 코린트 양식의 기둥을 통해 로마 건축을 반영합니다.

This Renaissance-style aqueduct was built between 1532 and 1537 and eventually supplied the entire population of Évora with clean drinking water. The city is located in an arid region with little rainfall throughout the year, so water had to be brought from a lake and a river several kilometers away. It connected the fountains over a distance of 18 km.

A huge parking lot in the north of Évora, right next to the aqueduct. A great starting point for a city tour.
