Praça da República, Amarante
The church of Saint Gonçalo and the cloister are all that remains of the old Dominican convent, founded in 1540. These spaces combine different architectural elements that represent the best artistic elements that were being made at the time. We highlight the "Balcony of the Kings", which features statues of King João III (k. 1521-1557), King Sebastião (k. 1557-1578), King Henrique (k. 1578-1580) and King Filipe I (k. 1581-1598), who sponsored the construction of this convent.
