Mosteiro de São Vicente de Fora

This monetary is very well maintained with lots of the old centuries wall tiles is excellent condition. Well worth self guide tour

Amazing historical place to visit there are 2 parts of this building, the church and the museum. The ticket cost 8€ for adult of 3€ if you’re student. Full of historical learning and amazing rooftop for 360 degree city view.

For €8 this has to be great value for money. We were lucky to see a tile exhibition within the building too. The church is a spectacular surprise after wandering around the cloisters, and the 360 degree view from the roof is amazing.

Was on a cruise and our ship docked at Lisbon seaport. Decided to do the 2.5 hours private Tuk-Tuk ride to explore the various monuments and landmarks, and we stopped briefly at this place. Beautiful coloured tiled walls and high ceilings.. lit a candle at 50 cents which was a nice touch. Went to the flower garden nearby. Very beautiful 😍 🤩 👌🏾

This was a wonderful surprise. I had never visited this Monastery before and loved every bit. The monastery itself is very beautiful, inside and out, and every wall, every staircase, every room is covered in beautiful tiles. I don't think I have ever seen so many tiles on a building before. There is even an exhibition of La Fontaine's fables painted in tiles on the upper level. The Bragança Pantheon is unique and deserves a visit! There is also the cardinals pantheon inside. The view from the upper level is gorgeous over the hills of Lisbon. The gentleman at the entrance was super nice and explained us a lot before we entered.

A large collection of porcelain murals, religious artifacts, paintings and church items. Hold onto your ticket until you leave because you will need it to use the bathroom and to exit.

Amazing place—I loved my experience here! It’s hard to believe that, given how popular Lisbon is a tourist destination, it would still have “hidden gems,” but this is very much that. Some great things about it: TONS of Portuguese azulejos ✅ Fascinating architectural detail ✅ Spacious, with tons to explore ✅ Friendly staff ✅ Lots of history + interesting artifacts ✅ Beautiful views over the city ✅ Reasonably priced ✅ No crowds, so you can actually enjoy at your own pace! ✅ Highly recommended!

Fantastic. Gorgeous views from the top, lovely collections, and the tile work is incredible. The craftsmanship is just wow.

While touring Lisbon our guide took us to the church and monastery of Sao Vincente. While the church was beautiful, the experience at the monastery was very negative. We walked into the monastery to find a man accepting payment to enter. Payment was €4/person. One could also use the toilets for €0.50/person. We decided we wanted to use the bathroom before visiting the monastery. I asked the worker about the bathrooms and immediately he was surly. "Yes, there are bathrooms." There were 4 of us (€2 total). The smallest bill I had was a €10. He looked at me and said, "no." I apologies and said that a €10 note was the smaller I had. He still said no. I don't if he didn't have change or if he just didn't want to do it, but regardless he was rude and uninviting. Because of his bad attitude we decided not to visit the monastery.
