Convento de São Francisco da Cidade
Founded in 1217, this convent became a reference of the urban structure and the history of the city’s evolution. The fact that the earthquake of 1755 didn’t affect it seriously shows us the robustness of its walls, pillars and arches. It is presently occupied by institutions connected to the teaching of arts and by the Contemporaneous Art National Museum.
