Description
Damaged statue (acid rain) at the entrance of the Igreja de Santa Cruz, Coimbra, Portugal. The church is part of a monastery. The Santa Cruz monastery is one of the most fascinating religious buildings of Coimbra. The ancient church is the final resting place of Portuguese kings, has numerous glaring design flaws and an organ that can only be played by four people. One of the most notable feature of the Santa Cruz church are the Azulejos tiles that line the walls of the church and depict key events in Portugal’s history.
