In 1131, King Afonso Henriques &#8211; who would become the first King of Portugal in 1139 &#8211; established his court at Coimbra, which served as the capital of the emerging kingdom until King Afonso III transferred the court to Lisbon in 1255.\u00a0<\/p><p>This 124-year period as capital shaped the city&#8217;s architecture, religious institutions and intellectual culture.

Construction began in 1717 on the commission of King Jo\u00e3o V &#8211; known as &#8220;the Magnanimous&#8221; \u2014 and was completed in 1728. The building holds approximately 70,000 volumes, the majority dating from the 16th to 18th centuries, including a first edition of Os Lus\u00edadas (1572), Luis de Cam\u00f5es&#8217;s epic poem of the Portuguese Age of Discovery.\u00a0<\/p><p>The interior consists of three Baroque halls aligned in sequence, with double-storey shelving units made of original 300-year-old oak, decorated throughout with gold leaf. The shelves still contain their original built-in ladders.\u00a0<\/p><p>A colony of bats lives permanently inside the library. The bats emerge at night to feed on insects &#8211; particularly bookworms and other species capable of damaging the paper and leather bindings. Library staff place leather mats on the tables each evening to protect the surfaces from bat droppings; the mats are removed before opening hours each morning.\u00a0<\/p><p>The library received its first books in 1750.

The cathedral was designed by Master Roberto, a French architect who simultaneously directed the construction of the Lisbon Cathedral (S\u00e9 de Lisboa).\u00a0<\/p><p>The S\u00e9 Velha is the only Romanesque cathedral from the period of the Portuguese Reconquista that survives largely intact. Its exterior resembles a military fortress: high crenellated walls and narrow windows reflect the belligerent conditions under which it was built. The interior contains approximately 380 sculpted Romanesque capitals &#8211; one of the largest ensembles of Romanesque sculptural decoration in Portugal.\u00a0<\/p><p>The Gothic cloister was begun in 1218, during the reign of Afonso II, making it one of the earliest Gothic structures in Portugal. The cathedral continues to function as an active place of worship and is open to visitors.\u00a0<\/p><p>The S\u00e9 Nova (New Cathedral), located higher up the hill near the university, dates from the late 16th century and was built by the Jesuits &#8211; but the S\u00e9 Velha, in the lower Alta quarter, is the older and architecturally more significant of the two.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-244897d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"244897d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/yellowcabtttours.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/233433-Velha-Cathedral-Se-Velha-1024x576.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-260352\" alt=\"Velha Cathedral Se Velha coimbra\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yellowcabtttours.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/233433-Velha-Cathedral-Se-Velha-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/yellowcabtttours.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/233433-Velha-Cathedral-Se-Velha-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/yellowcabtttours.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/233433-Velha-Cathedral-Se-Velha-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/yellowcabtttours.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/233433-Velha-Cathedral-Se-Velha-1536x864.webp 1536w, https:\/\/yellowcabtttours.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/233433-Velha-Cathedral-Se-Velha-2048x1152.webp 2048w, https:\/\/yellowcabtttours.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/233433-Velha-Cathedral-Se-Velha-600x338.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-e94b534 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"e94b534\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-6e70d32\" data-id=\"6e70d32\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e833f0f elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e833f0f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><br>Fado de Coimbra<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0d0e39a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0d0e39a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Coimbra has its own Fado tradition, distinct in origin, performance style and social function from Lisbon Fado.
