Free Tour Coimbra: Dream & Tradition Portugal — #1
1/6

Overview of the tour in Coimbra

Passion, knowledge and power are intrinsic to the city and our Free Tour of Coimbra will be a time machine that will travel through centuries in the city, from the Romans to the Dictatorship of the New State.

The Paço das Escolas Free Tour of Coimbra will also tell you several curiosities about the Bell Tower and the Joanina Library, which you can visit on your own after the tour. In the academic festivities and traditions, the Old Cathedral of Coimbra is the symbol of one of the most important moments in the life of any student in Coimbra: The Monumental Serenade.

In another of the most popular places in Coimbra, the Jardim da Manga, the Free Tour of Coimbra will talk about the Jewish presence in the city since time immemorial and also about the Inquisition Court of Coimbra, one of the cruelest in the country.

Almost at the end of the tour, the Free Tour of Coimbra will pass by the Monastery of Santa Cruz, where we will reveal who is the patron saint of the city. Free Tour of Coimbra is a journey made of legends and traditions, of political games and forbidden loves, it is a journey through the history of Portugal and its first capital.

  • Igreja de Santa Cruz
  • Paço das Escolas
  • Origen de Coimbra
  • Los Jesuítas y el Marqués de Pombal
  • Los Judios y la Inquisición
