Alcobaca Monastery Nave

Beneath tall columns and pillars is the altar and crucifix in the central nave of Alcobaca Monastery (Mosteiro de Santa Maria de Alcobaca), on 16th July, at Alcobaca, Portugal. The monastery was completed in 1223 for the Cistercian order and added to further by King Dinnis (Dennis) who built the main cloister and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Austere architecture is in keeping with the Cistercian regard for simplicity. (Photo by Richard Baker / In Pictures via Getty Images)
