Museu de Alberto Sampaio Description

The cloister and part of the former Dominican convent now house the very impressive Museu de Alberto Sampaio, with pictures and sculpture, mainly by Portuguese artists of the 14th 16th C., goldsmiths' work and a valuable collection of historical costume and furniture. Outstanding among the exhibits are the splendid sarcophagus of Constança de Noronhas, first Duchess of Bragança (in the cloister), a superb silver processional cross (16th C.) and the cloak which Joao I wore over his armor at the battle of Aljubarrota.
