Templo Romano de Evora (Templo de Diana)

Looking at this Roman Temple, also known (wrongly) as the Temple of Diana, is like going back to the past and idealizing times that are already there. It is one of the most important, if not the most important historical landmarks of Évora, and also one of the most visible symbols of Roman occupation in the city.

Chapel of Bones

The Bones Chapel is one of the best known monuments of Évora in Portugal. It is situated in the Church of San Francisco. It was built in the seventeenth century on the initiative of three Franciscan monks who, in the spirit of the time (religious counter-reform according to the norms of the Council of Trent), intended to convey the message of the transience of life, as the famous warning at the entrance: "We bones that are here for your waiting." In addition to the spiritual question, there was also a physical question, namely; there were forty-two monastic cemeteries in the Évora region that were taking up too much space and strategic places that many intended to use for other purposes. So they decided to remove the skeletons from the earth and use them to build and decorate the chapel.
