The Rooster of Barcelos

The legend of the Rooster of Barcelos tells the story of a dead rooster's miraculous intervention in proving the innocence of a man who had been falsely accused and sentenced to death. The story is associated with the 17th-century calvary that is part of the collection of the Archeological Museum located in Paço dos Condes, a gothic-style palace in Barcelos, a city in the Braga District of northwest Portugal.

 

Thank you Libania for this awesome map card, little did I know that I would be visiting Portugal in my Eurotrip last year. One of my favourite places in Europe :)
