PIP ABOVE PLS

The Church of São João Baptista, or Parish Church of Moura, is a Christian temple located in the parish of Moura (Santo Agostinho and São João Baptista) and Santo Amador, municipality of Moura, district of Beja, in Portugal. The Church of São João Baptista, or Parochial Church of Moura, is located in the parish of Moura (Santo Agostinho and São João Baptista) and Santo Amador, municipality of Moura, district of Beja, in Portugal.

The Church of São João Baptista has been classified as a National Monument since 1932.

It was around the 16th century, thanks to D. Manuel I, that the Church of São João Baptista was erected, the architect of the work having been Cristóvão de Almeida. This church was commissioned because the church in Moura Castle did not have the space to support the number of local believers.

The interior of the church has three naves, the main nave being for the clergy and nobility, and the side naves for the people. In it, the main chapel stands out, composed of Sevillean tiles in shades of blue. Also notable in the main nave is a large marble pulpit. The ceiling of this church collapsed during the 1755 earthquake in Lisbon.

Dominating the city with what remains of its towers and walls, the castle of Moura was built by the Portuguese in the early 14th century taking advantage of the fortifications left by the Arabs. In the second half of this century a second walled fence was added to house the increasing population.

In the 16th century, King Manuel I of Portugal commissioned the architect Francisco de Arruda to make some changes, probably including the clock tower, also dating from this period the female convent of S. Domingos, which is inside the fence, ordered by D. Ângela de Moura, in 1562, on the foundations of the old mosque. The convent church keeps the Manueline tomb of the brothers Pedro and Álvaro Rodrigues, presumed conquerors of Moura.

During the Restoration Wars, in the second half of the 17th century, the medieval fort was reinforced with a line of bastions and ravelins, according to the project of Nicolau de Langres, adapted to the new techniques of war with firearms.

The rectangular keep and a circular tower on which a clock was added in the 19th century stand out from the fortified ensemble.
