Sites to See...Igreja de São Francisco, Porto (Portugal)

















Built between 1383 and 1410, the Church of St. Francis was constructed in a Gothic style, and was transformed with Baroque decoration in the 17th and 18th centuries.

The church's ordinary-looking Gothic exterior belies what you will find once you step inside, which is the most extraordinary church interior in Porto, and unquestionably one of the most lavish church interiors in all of Europe.
