Monastery (I)

Construction of Mosteiro da Batalha ("Monastery of the Battle") started in the 14th century, being dedicated to the Virgin Mary in memory of the Portuguese victory on Aljubarrota Battle against Castilla's army. The next few posts will show photos taken in the monastery last Summer.

The Castle

"Keeping his eyes fixed upon the Castle, K. went ahead, nothing else mattered to him. But as he came closer he was disappointed in the Castle, it was only a rather miserable little tower pieced together from village houses, distinctive only because everything was perhaps built out of stone, but the paint had long since flaked off, and the stone seemed to be crumbling."
