In the heart of the city is the illustrious Convent of Jesus, dating from the 15th century (1490). It was the first convent of Manueline architecture and one of the few that survived the 1755 earthquake. The work is documented and stylistically attributed to the Manueline architect Boitaca. Its atmosphere reminds us of peace and silence, but also of the complexity of the Manueline style alluding to the golden age of the Portuguese discoveries. An intricate and enigmatic style, an art where symbolism is present in every detail of its movement.
