Padrão de D. João I

The Padrão de D. João I, also referred to as Padrão de Aljubarrota or Padrão de São Lázaro, is a monument at the end of the D. João I Street, in front of the Saint Lazarus Chapel, in the freguesia of Creixomil, Guimarães, Portugal. The original monument is believed to have been erected to commemorate the Portuguese victory at the Battle of Aljubarrota, following King John I's entry into Guimarães in 1386, with construction of the standard beginning that year or the next. Although the current standard is not the original 15th-century one, nor are there any known records of its replacement, the existing monument was built sometime in the first half of the 16th century, possibly created following King Manuel I's foral in 1517. It is classified as a National Monument since 1910, and located at the Guimarães Historic Centre Heritage Site since 2001.
