Housed in a 15th-century Dominican convent founded in 1458, this museum showcases the spiritual life of the cloistered community over four centuries, notably Princess Santa Joana who entered in 1472 and was beatified in 1693. Visitors explore the monumental circuit including the ornate Baroque Church of Jesus with gilded woodwork and Portuguese tiles, the cloister, and view a significant collection of paintings, sculptures, tiles, and religious artifacts.
