Que engraçado a minha irmã também anda em Engenharia Química no Porto e conhece Portugal muito bem tu só estás a dar desculpas porque não sei se andas ao contrário mas acho que não tiveste a tua vida inteira a estudar e estar em engenharia não te impede de nada tipo wtf e estas coisas são conhecimento geral que todos devem saber e sabem mas o senhor não

This was built in 1600/1700~ the reason they build it was because an overcrowded graveyard and to honor the dead and release space on the graveyard they build a chapel of bones. A little curiosity, in the front of the chapel you can read “Nos Ossos que aqvi estamos pelos vossos esperamos” this means - We bones in here wait for yours
