Visit the Roman temple

See the structure built in honor of Emperor Augustus. The Roman Temple of Évora, also known as the Templo de Diana, stands as one of the most remarkable examples of Roman architecture in Portugal.

See the Capela dos Ossos

Explore the macabre chapel covered with bones. The Chapel of Bones stands as a somber yet thought-provoking testament to the transience of human life. Built in the 17th century by Franciscan friars, this unique chapel was created to evoke contemplation on mortality and the inevitability of death, all while encouraging a life devoted to Christian faith.

Designed following a style that was fashionable during the time, the chapel’s walls and pillars are adorned with the remains of over 5,000 individuals. These corpses, exhumed from nearby burial grounds, were used to decorate the space, a chilling yet intentional reminder of the fragile nature of human existence.
