Torre dos Clérigos

**★★★★★ Oscar Flores — 2 weeks ago

Iconic church and bell tower of Porto with a well organized exhibition of antiquities and historical summary of its history. The access to tower does have a €13 fee. The views from the top of the tower are unparalleled and certainly worth visiting. Of course there is an ample gift shop as well as top balcony views of inside the church.

The ticket per person is 10euros. You can visit the museum ( 3 floors) and after that you climb the stairs to the top of the tower. It was rainy when we visited it, but the view is exceptional and worth the money!!! There was not a lot of tourist at the tower at the moment so I assume, when there is a little bit more people, it could be difficult to go up and down.... Stairs are really narrow but manageable. Would recommend!

This is arguably one of Porto’s most recognizable landmarks, built in the mid-18th century by architect Nicolau Nasoni for the brotherhood of clerics.

Our walking tour guide mentioned that it is approximately about 75 metres tall, with about 225 stairs to climb up. From the top, you are offered a panoramic view of Porto, the rooftops, the Douro River and the city layout.

The tower and the associated church (Igreja dos Clérigos) are fine examples of Baroque style in Portugal.

The chapel is beautiful and was very much active in communion service and I think a few christenings when we arrived for our 2pm slot. We were early as advised and so explored the architecture which is beautiful. When you enter for you allocated slot, you can explore more of the chapel and get some great views of the interior art and architecture. The museum areas on each floor were interesting too. The climb to the top of the tower is not for the claustrophobic. It is narrow and very busy with
