Museum of Evora

The museum of Evora is situated in the historical main square across from the Roman temple to Diana.
 One of the old town hall windows from 1513 CE.
 Roman tombs
 Tomb of Fernao Cogominho, 1364.
 An engraving stone from the 1300's.
 The royal Portugese coat of arms.
 The painting "Master of Evora's Retable", early 1500's by Gerald David.
They also had many other medieval, Moorish, Roman and megalithic artifacts from within the city and around it. A good museum.
