Forum Aveiro - the largest commercial space in the city which, due to its architecture and format, has already earned it some distinctions in international awards.
Step 4
In the vicinity of the Forum is the Ponte dos Laços da Amizade where we find several ties tied to its structure. The idea came from two university students in 2004, with the aim of symbolizing friendship.
Sé de Aveiro
also known as the Parish Church of Nossa Senhora da Glória. Dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries, this Cathedral clearly demonstrates a fusion of architectural styles that have filled it over the years, from Baroque, Gothic and Mannerist.
