Geronimos

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

Hi, Steemit!!!

The monastery of Jerome in the suburbs of Lisbon Belem, Geronimos is a grandiose monument of the late Gothic Manueline style of Portuguese architecture. It is under the protection of UNESCO as a monument to the world heritage of mankind. The monastery was erected in the beginning of the XVI century at the request and order of King of Portugal Manuel I. The monastery was continued in the XVI century. However, the building of the monastery with a facade three hundred meters long, not only in those times, but today is considered a huge structure. This is a real treasure, built in the style of Manueline, whose name is associated with the name of the king himself. In the western wing of the monastery is the National Archaeological Museum and the Maritime Museum.
