|  | The Monastery The Monastery was built in the 12th century and is one of the first examples of Gothic architecture in Europe. In the 17th and 18th centuries the facade was remodelled in baroque style while the Gothic portal survived. The monastery houses the most romantic tombs of Portugal - the tombs of King Pedro and his murdered love Ines de Castro. |
