Homenagem as vitimas da Inquisicao em Portugal
10 min
The Portuguese Inquisition, established in 1536 and lasting nearly three centuries, marked one of the darkest chapters in the nation’s history. Once at the height of global influence, Portugal’s empire began to decline under the weight of this institution, which spread fear, intolerance, and religious persecution. Countless innocent lives were lost, many of them right here in Praça do Giraldo, where public executions by fire took place during the infamous acts of faith. Among the four Inquisition courts across Portugal, Évora’s was considered the most ruthless, leaving behind a somber legacy that still echoes in the city today.

Corticarte - Arte em Cortica
o oră Intrarea inclusă
A visit to a traditional cork factory reveals the fascinating journey of cork: from the cork oak tree and its careful extraction to the selection, preparation, and final product. Did you know the bark of the cork oak regenerates and can be harvested every nine years, reaching up to 25 cm thick? Naturally resistant to heat, cold, and fire, cork is an extraordinary sustainable material.
Portugal is responsible for 55% of the world’s cork production, used in everything from decorative coverings to sporting goods. Yet, cork is most famous for preserving the character of fine wines — allowing just the right amount of oxygen to pass through and help them age gracefully.

Pateo de Sao Miguel
10 min Intrarea inclusă
Tucked away from the main streets, Páteo de São Miguel is one of Évora’s hidden gems—beautiful, historic, and surprisingly quiet. Once the most fortified part of the city, it served as the residence of the governor and a royal lodging for kings visiting Évora. This site is also the birthplace of the Knights of Évora, who later became the Order of Avis, the dynasty that ushered in one of the most brilliant chapters in Portuguese history. A fascinating stop, especially for lovers of art and history.
