G	Gui Arranja on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Simplesmente maravilhosa! Quem a vê por fora não imagina, de maneira alguma, o que lá vai dentro! No exterior, destacam-se os vários contrafortes salientes que sustentam a fachada virada a sul. A fachada principal, virada a oeste, é ladeada por duas torres (embora apenas uma tenha sinos). Tem, no frontão, uma imagem de Santiago. Sob o portal principal, de mármore, ergue-se uma janela rectangular encimada, por sua vez, por um óculo circular, sendo estas as únicas fontes de luz para o interior. O interior é inteiramente revestido de azulejos e pinturas murais de várias épocas e tem três altares e uma capela (de Santa Ana). O coro-alto também pode ser visitado. O acesso ao interior faz-se pelo portal principal e pelo portal lateral que acede à capela de Santa Ana. Simply wonderful! Whoever sees it from the outside does not imagine, at all, what goes on inside! Outside, there are several protruding buttresses that support the south-facing facade. The main facade, facing west, is flanked by two towers (although only one has bells). There is an image of Santiago on the pediment. Under the main marble portal, a rectangular window is topped, in turn, by a circular oculus, which are the only sources of light for the interior. The interior is entirely covered with tiles and murals from various eras and has three altars and a chapel (from Santa Ana). The high choir can also be visited. Access to the interior is through the main portal and the side portal that accesses the chapel of Santa Ana.

R	Ricardo Valim on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Probably the most beautiful church from Evora... It is really incredible and off the tourists maps, I really can't understand why... Dona Maria Angelica the Church's guardian is a show apart, she knows about the history, the painting and everything you could ask, she takes care of this place by herself. From the outside you can't image how beautiful it is from the inside, take your time admiring the painting.
