Igreja e Torre dos Clérigos

The soaring Torre dos Clérigos (Tower of Clérigos), attached to an 18th-century granite church (Igreja dos Clérigos), is a Porto landmark, and most visitors climb it to admire the views. Nicolau Nasoni designed the oval church, with its elaborately festooned facade of swags and garlands, in the 1730s in Italian baroque style.
