The National Tile Museum, housed in the former Convent of Madre de Deus founded in 1509, displays glazed tiles and ceramics spanning from the 15th century to the present day, including Portuguese national treasures such as the Caça ao Leopardo panels and the Grande Panorama de Lisboa. Visitors explore the history of Portuguese glazed tile production through chronologically organized exhibits, complemented by the convent's architecture featuring a 16th-century Mannerist cloister, baroque-decorated chapel, and ornate church interiors.
