Arc et Tour d’Almedina
Remontant au XIe siècle comme l’indique son toponyme d’origine arabe qui signifie "la ville", l’Arc d’Almedina faisait partie des murailles médiévales. Il est aujourd’hui l’entrée dans la partie ancienne de Coimbra, où l’on peut voir une sculpture de l’atelier de Jean de Rouen.

Egalement connu sous le nom d’Arc de Barbacã, il se superpose à une tour qui eut diverses fonctions au fil des siècles. Aux XIVe et XVe siècles, il fut siège du pouvoir municipal, Maison de la Mairie, et plus tard Maison de l’Audience où se réunissaient les conseillers municipaux.

À son sommet, la cloche coulissante annonçait les sessions municipales et les heures d’ouverture et de fermeture des portes à la population, une fonction qui se maintint jusqu'en 1870. À cet endroit existait une petite chapelle consacrée à Notre-Dame de la Conception où se réalisait une messe avant les réunions.

En 1835, avec la définition d’un nouvel espace pour l’Hôtel de Ville, la tour fut à nouveau occupée, notamment par la Société d’Instruction des Ouvriers (1851), par la Philharmonique de Coimbra et par l’École Libre des Arts et du Dessin (1878). En 1954 l’espace fut aménagé en Musée Ethnographique, ce qui lui conféra son apparence actuelle, et en 1988 il servit d’Archive Historique Municipale, une fonction qu’il maintient encore aujourd’hui.

Ce que les Gens Disent

★★★★★
"This was wonderful. The team was on time and had the materials. Our guide was great and very aware of our safety! He helped us in and out of the kayaks in the waves. Would recommend ! We even got to go in some small caves. "
★★★★★
"I recently completed a vintage car tour in Porto. The driver was charming and the experience was enjoyed by all. However, I do have a bit of a problem with the booking company, Experitour. After I made the booking online, nobody ever reached out to me to confirm the upcoming event. Usually, a day or two before such a tour, somebody will send an e-mail stating that the tour is going to occur soon and to review the meeting place and time. I would expect Experitour to do that since they were the company that received my online booking information. When I eventually contacted the Vintage Car Tour company, they initially had no record of my reservation. They were eventually able to find it, but I had to remind them that I went through Experitour. Not sure whose fault that was. These are minor details, but they prevent me from providing a 5-star review."
★★★★★
"Received fantastic service from experitour, always in contact with me. Unfortunately the tour was cancelled because of the Babet and Alina storms. Not their fault. Will certainly be rebooking with them next year hopefully will see the famous flamingoes. "
