Age of Discovery│Era de los Descubrimientos

[018/2014]

El Monumento a los Descubrimientos es un monumento construido en 1960, en la margen del río Tajo, en Lisboa, para conmemorar los 500 años de la muerte de Enrique el Navegante. El monumento tiene la forma de una carabela con el escudo de Portugal en los lados y la espada de la Dinastía de Avís sobre la entrada. Enrique el Navegante se alza en la proa, con una carabela en las manos. En las dos filas descendientes de cada lado del monumento, están las estatuas de héroes portugueses fuertemente ligados a los Descubrimientos, así como famosos navegantes, cartógrafos y reyes.

Monument to the Discoveries is located on the northern bank of the Tagus River estuary, Lisbon. The monument celebrates the Portuguese Age of Discovery (or Age of Exploration) during the 15th and 16th centuries.
