The Church of St. Francis in Evora is a church of Gothic-Manueline architecture. Built between 1480 and 1510 by masters of pedraria Martim Lourenço and Pero de Trilho and decorated by the royal painters Francisco Henriques, Jorge Afonso and Garcia Fernandes, it is closely linked to the historical events that marked the period of maritime expansion of Portugal. This is evident in the symbols of the monumental ogival vault: the cross of the Order of Christ and the emblems of the founding kings, D. João II and D. Manuel I.

Located in the city of Évora, in the Alentejo in Portugal.

Classified as a National Monument by Decree of 06-16-1910, DG No 136, dated 06/23/1910 and jointly inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage List, which, under Art. 15 of Law no. 107/2001, of 8 September, is classified as MN.
