Full description

Clérigos Church is a baroque landmark whose 75-metre bell tower dominates Porto's skyline and is a symbol of the city. Entry to the church itself is free according to visitors, while climbing the tower, around 250 narrow steps, requires a paid ticket and rewards you with a 360-degree view over the rooftops.

The interior has a marble altarpiece, and an organ performance is reported at noon. A visit takes roughly 45 minutes, and reviewers recommend either the early hours or the evening tour to avoid crowds on the stairs.

Reviews

It's not the dome of Cologne, neither Notre dame, but it is the Clerigos in Porto!. Great 360 views from the tower for 10 euros. Really well preserved. You can get there for free if you just go the the church, and also every single day at midday there's a free pipe organ concert, fantastic! Either way, you will…
