Porto Cathedral

The Porto Cathedral, also known as Sé do Porto, is a Roman Catholic church located in the historical centre of Porto, Portugal. It is one of the city's oldest monuments and one of the most important local Romanesque monuments. The cathedral was built on the site of an old chapel or hermitage founded by Henry of Burgundy and his wife in 1108. The building has a mix of architectural styles, with a predominantly Baroque style, although its façade and the nave are Romanesque and its cloister and one of the chapels are Gothic in style. The interior has a restrained decoration with bare walls and only the high altar and some of its chapels are decorated in a Baroque style. The cloister is decorated with tiles painted with scenes from the Bible and offers impressive views over the city, the Douro River and the wine cellars on the waterfront
