Manueline Architecture is a unique style of late Gothic architecture that emerged in Portugal during the reign of King Manuel I in the early 16th century. This architectural style is characterized by intricate ornamentation, maritime motifs, and a blend of influences from Moorish, Renaissance, and Gothic styles. Notable features of Manueline architecture include elaborate stone carvings, twisted columns, and decorative elements inspired by the Age of Discovery, such as ropes, shells, and navigational instruments. Prominent examples of this style can be seen in structures like the Jerónimos Monastery and the Belém Tower in Lisbon.
