Se e Sao Lourenco

Sé e São Lourenço is best known within Alentejo for Portalegre Cathedral, a 16th-century landmark in the historic centre of Portalegre. The parish occupies part of this district capital, set on the southern slopes of the Serra de São Mamede, whose protected landscape rises above the plains of eastern Alentejo. Portalegre developed as an important regional town and is also associated with Portugal’s modern tapestry tradition: the Manufactura de Tapeçarias de Portalegre has produced handwoven tapestries here since 1946.
