Add PhotosFounded in 1402, this religious building, classified as a Building of Public Interest (Dec. No. 2/96, DR 56, of 6 March), is closely linked to the Ataíde Family, to whom important credit works from the 15th to the 17th century are attributed. The ensemble consists of a church, which highlights a magnificent sepulchral chapel, in Renaissance style, mannerist tombs in the chancel, several graves in the church, a residence of monks with their cloisters, constructions linked to economic activities, cultivation and leisure, and gardens with fountains and ponds. Nowadays, the complex is abandoned and in a decrepit state.
