The interior of this church is one of Portugal's most remarkable Baroque and Rococo ensembles.

Initially a Gothic church, its interior is known as one of Portugal's finest Baroque Rococo ensembles, with an impressive display of gilded and endlessly carved woodwork. Of particular note is the family tree of Jesus Christ (on the left as you enter). Opposite the main entrance, you can also visit the small Museum of Sacred Art and the crypt, filled with thousands of tombs of nobles from the 7th to the 19th centuries, decorated with skulls and crossbones (note the glass window with the pile of bones on the floor). Atmosphere.

La visite comprend la Maison du Tiers-Ordre de St François (en face l'église), où on prend les billets, et l'église elle-même. Dans la Maison, outre quelques belles pièces d'art sacré, la crypte et son ossuaire sont très surprenants. Quant à l'église elle-même, l'extérieur gothique sobre ne laisse pas supposer le délire baroque de l'intérieur (photos interdites).

On est pas obligé d'aimer le baroque ! Toutefois, le statuaire de cette église ne laisse pas indifférent, surtout en suivant les explications de la guide très compétente. il faut voir !

Le dernier jour de notre séjour nous nous sommes présentés à l'entrée de cette église réputée. Comme nous venions de visiter le musée de la communication et des transports extrêmement cher à savoir 7,5 € par personne pour pas grand chose, nous avons refusé de régler encore 3,50 € pour visiter cette église.
