2023 - Portugal - 108 - Alcobaça - 9 of 13 - Alcobaća Monastery - 5 of 7 - Túmulo de D. Inês de Castro

            Alcobaça Monastery (Monastery or Royal Abbey of Santa Maria) tomb of Dona Inês de Castro.

Close to the altar of the church, are two tombs.

Occupying the south and north transepts are two intricately carved 14th-century tombs.

They are the church’s greatest possessions, that commemorate the tragic love story of Dom Pedro and Dona Inês de Castro. 

Although the tombs themselves were badly damaged by rampaging French troops in search of treasure in 1811, they still show extraordinary narrative detail. 

The tombs are inscribed Até ao Fím do Mundo (until the end of the world) and, on Pedro’s orders, placed foot to foot so that, when the time comes, they can rise up and see each other straight away.
