About the Book

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 132. Not illustrated. Chapters: Diogo de Boitaca. Excerpt: Diogo de Boitaca (c. 1460 1528?) was an influential architect and engineer of some of the most important Portuguese buildings, working in Portugal in the first half of the 16th century.

While working at the Monastery of Batalha, he married in 1512 Isabel Henriques, daughter of the Mateus Fernandes, architect at the same monastery. He settled in Batalha in 1516, where he died in 1528. He was buried in the Monastery of Batalha, close to the tomb of Mateus Fernandes.
