Igreja de São Francisco in Évora, Portugal, is a notable Gothic-style church that dates back to the late 15th century. It is renowned for its striking architectural features, including its impressive façade and intricate interior details. One of the most unique aspects of this church is the Capela dos Ossos, or Chapel of Bones, which is adorned with the bones and skulls of approximately 5,000 monks. This macabre yet fascinating chapel serves as a somber reminder of the transience of life.
