MUI NOBRE E SEMPRE LEAL CIDADE DE ÉVORA

VERY NOBLE AND ALWAYS LOYAL CITY OF ÉVORA

 

In Praça do Giraldo the lights are adorned with the coat of arms of Évora. It features Giraldo the fearless on horseback with his sword pointed up. The sword is covered in blood when on colored flags and banners.

 

The two heads at the bottom are moors, a gatekeeper and his daughter, Giraldo beheaded allowing the Christians to take over Évora.
