Cruzeiro da Praça da Sé

This Cruise or Cruzeiro is located in the Praça da Sé, just opposite the old cathedral of Bragança. It is entirely carved in stone and was built in 1689. In 1875 it was transferred to the graveyard and eventually returned to its original place in 1931. It consists of a stone obelisk with filigree and carved geometric and vegetational elements, resting on a square base and a spire topped with floral motif and a cross.
