Photographer’s Note

The Monastery of the Dominicans of Batalha was built to commemorate the victory of the Portuguese over the Castilians at the battle of Aljubarrota in 1385. Located proudly in a valley this imposing structure is an outstanding example of combined Gothic and Manueline architecture.
It has been classified by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.
