Visit Pelourinho Colares

The pillory Colares is type Manuelian and probably contemporary renewal of the Provincial Necklaces in 1516.
Presents basic prismatic shaft studded with flowers emerging in the spiral grooves that are repeated at the top, the conical pyramid rests on a lush fluorescence.
It is different from the medieval pillory the richness of decoration and by the force of the artistic sense that was ornate, the pillory is the best example of such a monument of the time Manuelina.
