Became a Templar in 1969 and would like to see the artifacts representing my brotherhood and pay allegiance to our Grandmaster.

Been to Évora a couple times and really love it. Beyond the sites you visited, there are some great restaurants and places to stay and day trips one can take from Évora. For example, to the villages of Alvito and Mértola.

I want to travel to Elvas first, then Evora, then Setubal then Lisbon over 10-12 days. I also hope to see many of the places in this video.

Evora was really boring for us. I didn’t need to spend more than a half day there.

@LucasWorldTravel Ай бұрын

Fair enough!

@dwrisdon2487 8 ай бұрын

If you enjoyed the "vibe" in Evora, then Alcobaca will steal your soul. One point of correction, the bones came from graves outside the city walls because that's where the "non-believers" were buried. If the bones had belonged to monks, they would be consegrated corpses and a sin to exhume. Bill

@LucasWorldTravel 8 ай бұрын

That’s the information that we got from inside the chapel so I think they would know.

@dwrisdon2487 8 ай бұрын

Perhaps a bit of eclesiastic cleansing.

@jeremygman2710 5 ай бұрын

It’s been a couple of years since I was there, but my recollection is that there was not enough space in the cemetery to bury more dead and some tragedy (in nearby Montemor?) suddenly created an urgent need to dispose of many bodies. Three monks had the idea of using bones to create the chapel, thereby solving their surplus-body problem and allowing them to create a visual representation of the illusory nature of life. The bones may have included those from a few monks, but there couldn’t possibly have been enough monks there for the whole chapel to be their bones.
