Évora/Estremoz

Visit in Évora to the Chapel of the Bones, Temple of Diana, Cathedral, Giraldo Square, lunch stop, our advice: Cabrito roasted in the oven, then visit the City of Estremoz, known internationally for its white marble deposits, called Marble of Estremoz. The exploration of Estremoz marble has a very old origin, as evidenced by the Roman Temple of Évora, which contains marble from Estremoz. It is also present on the main altar of the Cathedral of Évora.

Estremoz was granted the distinction of “Remarkable Village”, attributed by the kings of Portugal to many of its towns; was elevated to the category of city in 1926 ..
