O claustro do Mosteiro da Serra do Pilar é uma das partes mais notáveis do conjunto arquitetónico, classificado como Monumento Nacional e Património Mundial da UNESCO. O claustro tem uma planta circular, única em Portugal, e é formado por uma colunata com capitéis jónicos que sustenta uma platibanda superior ricamente decorada com motivos vegetalistas e geométricos. No centro do claustro há um chafariz de cantaria com quatro bicas e uma taça octogonal.
The cloister of the Serra do Pilar Monastery is one of the most remarkable parts of the architectural complex, classified as a National Monument and UNESCO World Heritage Site. The cloister has a circular floor plan, unique in Portugal, and is formed by a colonnade with Ionic capitals that supports an upper plateau richly decorated with plant and geometric motifs. In the center of the cloister is an ashlar fountain with four spouts and an octagonal bowl.
The Benedictine Cloister at Monreale (Chiostro dei Benedettini) was completed c. 1200. It measures 47x47 metres and is located on the south side of the cathedral. Each side has 26 arches resting on columns. The splendid capitals include narrative cycles from the Old and New Testaments.
The Synagogue of Santa María la Blanca (literally Synagogue of Saint Mary the White, originally known as the Ibn Shushan Synagogue, or commonly the Congregational Synagogue of Toledo) is a museum and former synagogue in Toledo, Spain. Erected in 1180, according to an inscription on a beam, it is disputably considered the oldest synagogue building in Europe still standing. It is now owned and preserved by the Catholic Church.
Its stylistic and cultural classification is unique among surviving buildings as it was constructed under the Christian Kingdom of Castile by Islamic architects for Jewish use. It is considered a symbol of the cooperation that existed among the three cultures that populated the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages.

Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta
. Orvieto Cathedral is a large 14th-century Roman Catholic cathedral dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and situated in the town of Orvieto in Umbria, central Italy.
The Pozzo di San Patrizio (English: "St. Patrick's Well") is a historic well in Orvieto, Umbria, central Italy. It was built by architect-engineer Antonio da Sangallo the Younger of Florence, between 1527 and 1537, at the behest of Pope Clement VII who had taken refuge at Orvieto during thesack of Rome in 1527 by the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, and feared that the city's water supply would be insufficient in the event of a siege. The well was completed in 1537 during the papacy of Pope Paul III.
The architect-engineer Antonio da Sangallo the Younger surrounded the central well shaft with two spiral ramps in a double helix, accessed by two doors, which allowed mules to carry empty and full water vessels separately in downward and upward directions without obstruction. The cylindrical well is 53.15 metres (174.4 ft) deep with a base diameter of 13 metres (43 ft). There are 248 steps and 70 windows provide illumination.
(Il pozzo di San Patrizio venne realizzato nel XVI secolo per garantire acqua alla città di Orvieto in ogni momento dell'anno, in caso di calamità oppure per un prolungato stato di assedio.
A sezione circolare è profondo sessantadue metri e largo tredici. Intorno alla canna del pozzo girano a spirale due scale a chiocciola progettate in maniera tale da correre sovrapposte l'una all'altra senza però comunicare tra loro: ciò serviva a far si che le persone con i muli che si recavano nel fondo del pozzo ad attingere acqua non intralciassero il cammino di chi, dopo essersi procurato l'acqua, stava risalendo in superficie.
Ogni scala ha 248 scalini comodissimi, facili da scendere anche per le bestie da soma. Le scale prendono luce da 72 finestre centinate aperte nella canna. La luce viene diminuendo a mano a mano che si discende, fino a diventare penombra. In fondo alla canna un piccolo ponte collega le due scale.
Il pozzo di San Patrizio fu fatto scavare da papa Clemente VII che si era rifugiato ad Orvieto durante il sacco di Roma nel 1527.)

Church of St. John the Baptist was built in 1671-1687. It is one of the few architectural monuments of the 17th century in Yaroslavl that were built with support from local parishioners and donors. The largest cathedral in Yaroslavl, it still stays one of the most remarkable buildings in the city. The cathedral has two aisles that are topped with closely located five-headed domes. The height of the aisles equals to the height of the central building; so if you look from the east the church resembles 15-headed cathedral with 5-apsis altar. The exterior of the church strikes with diversity and splendour of décor, dominated by figured brick from two brick factories of the city.
Храм Иоанна Предтечи (1671-1687 гг.) — задумывался и строился как нечто особенное, «чего прежде никогда не было», поэтому с момента закладки сопровождался большим количеством вкладов и пожертвований, поражая богатством внутреннего убранства и количеством драгоценной утвари. Его грандиозные размеры позволяют ему до сих пор оставаться одной из самых заметных построек в городе. Внешний вид храма поражает разнообразием декоративных форм. Здесь применены все основные приемы декора русской архитектуры XVII века, среди которых главное место занимает фигурный кирпич.
Разнообразие его форм огромно — от скромных профилей до целых фигурных плит: это разнообразные бусины, розетки, валики, косички, колонки разных размеров и форм, дыньки, кокошники и т. д. Эта изощренная каменная краснокирпичная «резьба» прекрасно сочетается с цветными изразцами.
Изображение церкви помещено на оборотной стороне 1000-рублевой купюры, выпущенной в обращение в 2001 году.
