A real "must do"! A real "must visit"!! A peace of history for multiple generations! Spend some time visiting something that will give a true meaning for some "natural" acts of today's life... Very well done!!!

Igreja e Mosteiro da Santa Cruz

Reviewed By Margo7850p

The Church of Santa Cruz is located in the center of Coimbra, the historic center, in a very charming place. A very nice church. It was erected in the first half of the XII century. Lots to see, lots of history. The heart of the Romanesque church is an unusual altar without a statue, and two amazing tombs of Portugal's first rulers: Alphonsus I the Conqueror and Sancho I. The blue azulejos tiles are a characteristic feature of the church. The interior of the temple is decorated with a huge organ with fantastic Japanese works of art. A monastery is a real gem. A must visit if you are in Coimbra. Next to it is a square with a number of cafes.
