Capela de São Miguel

Capela de São Miguel
A Manueline church from the 16th century, integrated in the University and remodelled in the 17th and 18th centuries.

It is preceded by a portal, also in the Manueline style, built sideways to the chapel.

The chapel has a single nave and altarpiece.

It is worth admiring the 17th-century main retable, in gilded woodwork and with fine Mannerist paintings; the side altars from the 18th century; the 17th-century pulpit; the Baroque organ, from 1733, with «chinoiserie» painted decoration; the panels of tiles of the nave and altarpiece, made in Lisbon and Coimbra.
