Top sights near Sé de Aveiro - Igreja Paroquial de Nossa Senhora da Glória
Forget about the "Venice of Portugal." Aveiro doesn't imitate anyone. This self-guided audio tour starts from the Aveiro Train Station and finishes at Troncalhada Salt Pans Ecomuseum. Between these points, you'll pass through 10 stops, where moliceiros, Art Nouveau houses, and the sweet treat invented by nuns await. You will discover why Aveiro is not Venice and what the spicy jokes painted on the moliceiros mean. Admire the 1916 tile-covered train station and the most beautiful Art Nouveau street in Portugal, an open-air museum. Learn about the tradition of the ribbons on the most colorful bridge and tie your own ribbon. Taste the authentic fresh ovo mole where it was born, at Oficina do Doce, and understand why the nuns invented it. Walk to the thousand-year-old salt pans of the Ecomuseu da Troncalhada and discover Aveiro's salt. No buses, no rush. Just the real Aveiro, from land to water.
Olvídate de la "Venecia de Portugal". Aveiro no imita a nadie. En 10 paradas te llevo de la estación de azulejos a las salinas milenarias, entre moliceiros, casas de Arte Nova y el dulce que inventaron unas monjas. Sin buses, sin prisas. Solo Aveiro de verdad, de la tierra al agua.

Directions
Sé de Aveiro - Igreja Paroquial de Nossa Senhora da Glória traces its origins to the Dominican Convent of São Domingos, founded in 1464. The church dates from the late 15th century and was altered over time, with Baroque expansions during the 16th and 17th centuries. It became a parish church in 1835 and later served as Aveiro’s cathedral. That progression—from convent church to parish church and cathedral—makes it a landmark in the city’s religious history. It is smaller than many visitors expect of a cathedral, but its historic interior merits a look. Visitors have also noted two organs: an older instrument and a more modern one.
