In an age when war made swords dance and fate hung on the thread of uncertainty, the testimony of a promise eternalised in stone stands majestic. In the plots of the Battle of Aljubarrota, King João I, in a reverie of love and courage, promised to erect a grandiose monument if he achieved victory.

Among his men, a battalion stands out, intrepid and passionate, brandishing their swords in honour of love and loyalty. The courage and determination of the "Ala dos Namorados", as the battalion would become known, led King João I to triumph and thus the imposing Monastery of Batalha was born.

More than an architectural treasure, the Monastery of Batalha is an immortal ode to the transformative power of promises of love, where each carved stone tells a story of courage and devotion.
