The architecture is amazing and stunning. The colors on the outside are magnificent. I just wish there was a professional better lighting for when is night. The light they have doesn’t do justice to the outside building.

A giant masterpiece of Gothic architecture, definitely worth visiting. We saw Batalha on our way up north from Lisbon to Porto and have no regrets!
The whole monastery is amazing, but when you're short of time we recommend seeing at least three places: the church (free of charge), cloisters and unfinished chapels. The visit really takes you back in time. It took us about 1 hour.
The entrance fee could be paid upon entering (6€), and there is a huge parking lot (free of charge) right next to the monastery.

One of the most beautiful and preserved religious buildings in Portugal. A must see when you travel 1h north Lisbon.

A very beautiful gothic monastery. Worth visiting for 30 mins if you have the time, as it has a long history for Portugal

Stunning and enormous! We went at almost 5:00 pm (most of the site closes at 6:00 pm), which was absolutely the best time to see the architecture and stained glass windows from inside the church. The carved columns, arched entryways and cloister were an absolute delight.

Very beautiful monastery. Only one small section requires tickets to enter whilst the rest of the monastery is open to visitors.

Wonderful place, amazing architecture, especially the unfinished chapel. A must to see it.

Beautiful building but not well maintained, the outside of the building needs some cleaning.

Beautiful representation of Gothic style architecture. Beautiful place to see. Over 100 years to build it. A majestic building with lots of heritage.

We were blown away by the timeless beauty and sheer size of the monastery - like a giant remnant of the past, weathered but demands absolute respect. It’s beyond my comprehension how were people capable of such wonders so long ago in the past. It’s an absolute marvel, an humbling, emotional experience walking around it, getting lost in the intricate details on the walls and columns. We didn’t have time to get tickets and visit all parts - will do it next time. Can’t recommend this monastery enough!

Superb architecture. The church is free so if you want to skip the ticket that’s totally fine but the incomplete chapel is definitely worth the visit
2023-09-26 20:14:28 GMT
One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage site for a reason and it’s in a very quaint, accessible town.

When visiting or passing through Batalha, don't forget to stop and admire the amazing architecture of this building, if you can, go inside, it's stunning.
2023-11-30 21:01:25 GMT
Beautiful, although not as complex as the Alcobaca and Tomar ones. But definitely worth a visit.
2024-01-21 22:24:34 GMT
Magnificent place, its full of blessed energy, full of joy and happiness 😊
2023-09-20 21:44:00 GMT
Beautiful monastery! Tickets must be kept until the end of the tour as you need to show it at least 3 times.

Interesting Gothic architecture. Went on Christmas and it was closed so only saw from the outside.

A really beautiful cathedral and monastery. Worth a visit. We also had a good snack at one of the restaurants on the square. All good.

€10 entry for this monastery that wouldn't look out of place in the Harry potter universe.
