Lisbon - Convento da Conceiçao dos Cardais

The Rua do Século can be reached from the southeast corner of the Praça do Principe Real. The long building, which once housed the Carmelite monastery Convento da Conceiçao dos Cardais, makes a very spartan impression here. The two decorated entrance doors stand out strikingly from the plain facade. Constructed around 1700, the building survived the earthquake undamaged.
