Capela dos Ossos
A 17th century building that aims to convey the message of the transience of life.

Dedicated to Senhor dos Passos, it has purposely dim lighting. Free entry and visit.
Templo Romano de Evora (Templo de Diana)
It is one of the largest and best preserved Roman temples in the Iberian Peninsula. Along with the Chapel of Bones, it is the postcard presentation of Évora. It is over 2,000 years old and was built as a tribute to Emperor Augustus, forming part of what would later become the Roman Forum. Appreciation of the site and photographs.
Cathedral of Evora (Se Catedral de Evora)
This is a 12th century church, a transition from the Romanesque to the Gothic period.
