Évora with Wine Experience - Beyond the Tejo River

It is easy to understand why Évora was already an important city during Roman times. Chosen by the Kings of Portugal as a royal residence in the 15th century, Évora became a center of political, cultural, and spiritual life, contributing to the rich heritage that still defines the city today. Within its historic center, discover some of Évora’s most iconic landmarks, including the famous Chapel of Bones, built in the 17th century, and the lively Giraldo Square, named after Geraldo Geraldes, who conquered the city from the Moors in 1167. From there, admire the remarkable Roman Temple, one of the best-preserved Roman monuments in the Iberian Peninsula and part of Évora’s UNESCO World Heritage Site. Complete your experience with a visit to the renowned Cartuxa Winery, where history, tradition, and some of the finest wines of the Alentejo region come together.
