Beautiful building, in good condition. "The manor of Eywere (German: Eyefer) was first mentioned in 1552." The main building of the estate in the historical style includes many stages of construction. Some of the building's walls definitely date back to the 18th century, but older structures are also possible. The building was probably expanded and modernized in the 19th century. The main building acquired its current elegant and romantic appearance during reconstruction work at the beginning of the 20th century, completed in 1912. The building contains elements of Art Nouveau, Neoclassical and Neo-Gothic. The facade of the building is decorated with an octagonal corner tower located in the right corner, a neo-Gothic decorative window in the middle and a small polygonal arched structure. The windows of the building have complex stucco frames, characteristic of historicism. The interior has many neoclassical design elements."

Sé Catedral (Cathedral of Lisbon)

The Cathedral of Saint Mary Major, often called Lisbon Cathedral or simply the Sé, is a Roman Catholic cathedral located in Lisbon, Portugal. The oldest church in the city, it is the seat of the Patriarchate of Lisbon. The cathedral has survived many earthquakes and has been modified, renovated and restored several times. It is nowadays a mix of different architectural styles. 

The site where it stands was the principal mosque of Lisbon when it was an Arab settlement. The construction of the cathedral started around 1150, three years after the city was conquered from the Moors during the Second Crusade. Shortly after the victory the English knight Gilbert of Hastings was named bishop of the city of Lisbon.

One good reason to visit the Cathedral is to visit its charming cloisters located in the back. There are several tombs in the cathedral, the most notable of which is the beautifully sculpted tomb of Lopo Fernandes Pacheco and his wife.
