仁慈堂
The monastery was established by António Luís de Meneses, who promised to built the monastery if he prevailed in the Battle of Montes Claros. When the religious orders, convents, and monasteries in Portugal were closed by the government in 1833, the monastery buildings were handed over to the Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Lisboa (a society charged with helping the old, the sick, and abandoned or orphaned children).
