Bone Chapel
The Bone Chapel, a unique attraction made up of thousands of human bones collected from old church graveyards, serves as a poignant reminder of the sanctity of life. Visitors are sure to be moved by this perpetual and profound display. (Please click on the picture of the slide to view it in full screen.)
Directions
The Museum of Nativity and the Bone Chapel can be found on the grounds of the St. Francis Assisi Church campus. After visiting the Evora Cathedral, head straight towards Praca do Giraldo or Evora Square, where you can find plenty of cafes serving delicious meals. Our local tour guide, Ms. Maria, respectfully requested that we complete the tour first before exploring the square and the market. To get to St. Francis Assisi Church, take a left onto Alcorcova de Cima, and you will find the public market just across from the church.
