Itinerario
This is one of the main squares in the city center. Here you'll learn about the city's occupation over time and what you can visit on the other side of the river.
This square is dominated by two churches from the twelve century. You’ll learn more about it here at this spot
The Church of St. James was originally founded in the 12th century and has undergone many changes throughout its history
The Church of Santa Cruz was part of the monastery founded in the 12th century under the sponsorship of the first king of Portugal. His tomb is inside the church.
The Almedina arch and tower were part of the city’s main defense wall, giving access to the interior of the walled city. Here you can also admire the beautiful sculpture dedicated to Fado of Coimbra.
The Old Cathedral has a fortress-like appearance and was built in the 12th century. It also has a very strong relationship with the university’s academic traditions.
The history of the Machado de Castro museum goes all the way back to the Roman Empire. Often overlooked by tourists, this is one of the best views in the city.
The New Cathedral combines Baroque and Mannerist styles in a single building. This space was a Jesuit college before being converted into a cathedral.
This is the oldest university in the country and one of the oldest in Europe. You can learn more about the academic traditions and the evolution of this space since the occupation by the Muslims. With the help of some photos, you’ll find out what you can find inside and tips on visiting.
Our tour will end at this botanical garden created in the 18th century. Here you will learn about the tragic love story of Pedro and Inês with its dramatic episodes that took place in Coimbra.

About Coimbra
Coimbra is a hill city on the Mondego River in central Portugal, home to a centuries-old university, a baroque library and its own style of fado.
Coimbra rises above the Mondego River in central Portugal and was the country's capital in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. Its university, founded in 1290 and settled in Coimbra from 1537, is the oldest in Portugal, and the old campus on the hill is a UNESCO site with the gilded Joanina Library and a tall clock tower. Students still wear black academic capes.
