Convento dos Capuchos - Parques de Sintra| Portugal

Hi guys, how are you guys ? I hope so ,and in today's video I'm going to show you this beautiful place. Convento dos Capuchos (although also called Convento da Santa Cruz) is a former convent of the Order of São Francisco, located in Serra de Sintra, in the parish of São Martinho, municipality of Sintra, district of Lisbon, Portugal. a convent of Franciscan friars in the strictest observance of the Province of Arrábida was founded in 1560 by D. Álvaro de Castro, Councilor of State to Sebastião I of Portugal and administrator of the Treasury. The primitive community was made up of eight friars, the best known being Friar Honório who, according to legend, lived until close to 100 years of age, despite having spent the last three decades of his life doing penance in a small cave. inside the convent fence. With the extinction of the male religious orders in the country (1834), the Franciscan community was expropriated and was forced to leave the premises of the convent. Later, still in the 19th century, the space was acquired by Francis Cook, 1st Viscount of Monserrate. In 1949 the property was acquired by the Portuguese State, having reached the end of the 20th century in a precarious state of conservation. From 2000 onwards, it became the responsibility of the company "Parques de Sintra, Monte da Lua, SA.", which has as one of the main objectives of its activity the recovery of the space.
