The Church and Convent of São Bento, located in the historic center of the city of Bragança, has its lateral entrance marked by a beautiful granite portico, with the coat of arms in its upper part. This church had its origin in an old Benedictine convent founded in the 16th century. The external lateral wall of this beautiful church appears to be leaning against the building, but it does not seem to pose a threat to public safety. This church is located in the center of the city, with a view of the palace known as the "Old Civil Government" and the Castle of Bragança. Inside the Church and Convent of São Bento stands out the ceiling of the main nave of the building, covered with a huge painting. This church is a fascinating and unique place, where you can drive up without difficulty. Visit this ancient church and plunge into its historic and cultural roots.
