The first cathedral constructed in Braga was Santa Maria de Braga Cathedral, aka Se Cathedral. There are multiple tour options available depending on what you want to see. In addition to the main building, there are three chapels (Capela dos Reis, Capela de Sao Geraldo and Capela da Gloria) where you can see the twin pipe organs. Be sure to make a stop at the courtyard (filled with a variety of archeological artifacts) which connects to the Misericordia church.
