Gothic and Manueline, a World Heritage Site since 1983 · 1 h 30 · 20 min from Fátima

The Monastery of Santa Maria da Vitória was begun by royal commission two years after the Battle of Aljubarrota in 1385, and was built over more than a century. It has been a National Monument since 1907 and a World Heritage Site since 1983. Inside you can see the church, the Founder's Chapel with the tombs of John I and Philippa of Lancaster, the Royal Cloister and, at the back, the Unfinished Chapels, an octagonal roofless pantheon with a Manueline portal.
From 16 October to 31 March it is open from 9:00 to 18:00, and from 1 April to 15 October from 9:00 to 18:30. It is closed on 1 January, Easter Sunday, 1 May and 25 December. Tickets are bought on its website or at the ticket office.
