Praça do Giraldo
Historical landmark
👍👍 In Evora, all streets lead to Giraldo Square, Praça do Giraldo in Portuguese. It has been like this since its construction, in 1571/1573. This is where you will end up walking to. And where you will want to sit on a terrace and have a drink.
Giraldo Square is an icon paying tribute to Fearless Gera...

Ruínas Fingidas
Historical landmark
👍👍 Located within a public park there is no information about these ruins on site. Apparently they are a folly, created with items saved from the demolition of the monasteries at the turn of the 20th century.
Free to access and walk around they are well worth a few minutes, especially as the whole are...

Muralhas de Évora

Barrocal Dolmen
Historical landmark
👍👍 The state of conservation is incredible, it's a shame it's not being looked after with due respect by the Parish Council and its CM...
It's a tortuous path to get there, if you don't have a suitable vehicle for rougher paths, I recommend going on foot.

Torre das Cinco Quinas
Historical landmark
👍👍 The Torre das 5 Quinas, in Évora, near the Roman Temple is beautiful.
My uncle said about her:
"Here is the Tower of the 5 Quinas, which represents the 4 seasons of the year.
Faith, Hope and Charity."

Porta do Raimundo
Historical landmark
😠 Huge gap in the wall here, seems like anyone could just walk in! What’s the point of a city wall if you’re going to have a giant hole in it?

Castelo de Giraldo
Historical landmark
👍 I really liked this place. A statue of Giraldo holding a chopped head welcomes us to the area. The Castle itself is pretty much in ruins but we can still see where the walls were.
The worst part of it is the fact that it is not being maintained at all. The wild bushes have taken over the area makin...

Igreja de São João Evangelista / Igreja dos Lóios
Historical landmark
👍👍 Honestly, it's not worth the 5 euros charged, we respect the beautiful tile designs but the church is very small, it has bones in the background and tombs of nobles, we think it's quite expensive compared to other options

Roman House Ruins - Domus Burgos
Historical landmark
👍👍 From other reviews we were expecting these Roman Baths to be difficult to find but once you have identified the building - the town hall - the receptionist pointed us in the direction of the baths and gave us an explanatory leaflet that was in English as well as Portuguese. The baths are interestin...
