Ropes in History
EUrope students are very inquiring. They decided to find out how ropes have been used throughout History.
Monuments
In Portugal during the 15th and 16th centuries King Manuel I ordered the construction of monasteries, churches and other monuments with some nature elements (like roots, leaves, tree trunks...) and elements connected with the Portuguese Discoveries (like ropes, nets, coral...). This style is called "Estilo Manuelino".
We chose the following monuments because they have ropes carved in stone.
