COIMBRA - Igreja de São Tiago

Igreja de Santiago (São Tiago Church) is located at Praça do Comércio and has been built between the late 12th and early 13th centuries. It is one of the great Romanesque monuments of the city. The elegant south portal probably dates to the late 12th century, and consists of several unpainted archivolts, surrounded by a vine-shaped frame, and capitals and columns with plant motifs. The four-arch portal in the front facade was built later. It capitals contain various motifs, both plant and animal, some derived from the Old Cathedral of Coimbra, and its columns are decorated with spiral-shaped geometric reliefs and plant motifs. The church interior has three naves and three chapels at its head. In the 15th century. Source Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igreja_...)
