While in Portalegre for the Fourteenth International Conference on Food Studies, you can visit Portalegre Cathedral!
The town’s cathedral is a National Monument, and was ordered by King John III in the 16th century where an older medieval church used to stand. It reigns over Portalegre from the highest point in the town and along with its episcopal palace makes up an imposing Mannerist ensemble.
The current appearance of the interior is from the end of the 18th century when it was given a Neoclassical refit, but there are still things to see from the 16th and 17th centuries.
Most notably these are the white marble pulpits, and 96 painted panels dating to the 1500s and 1600s.
