Batalha Monastery
Classified by UNESCO as World Heritage since 2007 the Batalha Monastery, also known as Saint Mary of Victory Convent, is one of the greatest architectonic jewels of Portugal.
The building was ordered after the victory in the Ajubarrota Battle as a thankful promise by king D. João I, the Master of the Avis Order. The construction works started in 1388, under the project of Afonso Domingues.
