Description

The first stone of the current building, in the parish of São Vicente, was laid on November 4, 1654. On October 23 of the following year (1655), the community moved to its new home.

With the extinction of religious orders in the country (1834), the convent's facilities started to host the Military Hospital. Later, the property was sold to private individuals, and the College Dublin was installed there.

In 1898, the facade of the primitive church was in dismay and, in 1906, it threatened ruin. For this reason, they start thinking about replacing it. Project made in 1907, by the architect Moura Coutinho. It was completed in 1911.
