Évora
Not pleasure, not glory, not power: Freedom, only Freedom
Fernando Pessoa (1888-1935)
Freedom only exists when all our acts agree with all our thinking.
Agostinho da Silva (1906-1994)
During this visit to Évora, we stayed at The Noble House, a small inn created from buildings that had previously been a nobleman’s home, then a school; it is ideally located just behind the cathedral. We took a guided walk through parts of the walled city, ate pastries, admired the architecture and noted the archeological finds, as well as some modern architectural pieces, in the museum and around the city.
Two quotations printed on posters caught our attention:
