in
Lisbon, the dome, a later 19th century addition, is an example of
Neo-Manueline style. When King Manuel I died in 1521, he funded 62 construction projects. However, much original Manueline architecture in Portugal was lost or damaged beyond restoration in the
1755 Lisbon earthquake and subsequent
tsunami. In
Lisbon, the
Ribeira Palace, the residence of King Manuel I, and the
Hospital Real de Todos os Santos were destroyed, along with several churches. The city, however, still has outstanding examples of the style in the
Jerónimos Monastery (mainly designed by
Diogo Boitac and
João de Castilho) and in the small fortress of the
Belém Tower (designed by
Francisco de Arruda). Both are located close to each other in the
Belém neighbourhood. The portal of the
Church of Nossa Senhora da Conceição Velha, in
downtown Lisbon, has also survived destruction. Outside Lisbon, the church and chapter house of the
Convent of Christ at
Tomar (designed by
Diogo de Arruda) is a major Manueline monument. In particular, the large window of the chapter house, with its fantastic sculptured organic and twisted rope forms, is one of the most extraordinary achievements of the Manueline style. Other major Manueline monuments include the arcade screens of the Royal Cloister (designed by
Diogo Boitac) and the
Unfinished Chapels (designed by
Mateus Fernandes) at the
Monastery of Batalha and the
Royal Palace of Sintra. Other remarkable Manueline buildings include the church of the
Monastery of Jesus of Setúbal (one of the earliest Manueline churches, also designed by Diogo Boitac), the
Santa Cruz Monastery in
Coimbra, the main churches in
Golegã,
Vila do Conde,
Moura,
Caminha,
Olivença and portions of the cathedrals of
Braga (main chapel),
Viseu (rib vaulting of the nave) and
Guarda (main portal, pillars, vaulting). Civil buildings in Manueline style exist in
Évora (home to the Évora Royal Palace of 1525, by Pedro de Trillo, Diogo de Arruda and Francisco de Arruda) and the
Castle of Évoramonte of 1531),
Viana do Castelo,
Guimarães and some other towns. The style was extended to the decorative arts and spread throughout the
Portuguese Empire, to the islands of the
Azores,
Madeira, enclaves in
North Africa,
Brazil,
Goa in
Portuguese India and even
Macau, China. Its influence is apparent in southern Spain, the Canary Islands, North Africa and the former Spanish colonies of Peru and Mexico. ==Famous Manueline artists==
