Sacred Art Museum of Funchal, Religious art museum in downtown Funchal, Portugal.
The Sacred Art Museum of Funchal displays religious paintings, sculptures, sacred silver objects, and ceremonial garments within a former Episcopal Palace complex.
The museum, established in 1955, preserves five centuries of religious artworks collected during Madeira's sugar trade prosperity between the 15th and 19th centuries.
Portuguese and Flemish religious artworks showcase the evolution from Gothic to Baroque styles, reflecting strong commercial connections between Madeira and Northern Europe.

The museum contains the largest collection of Early Netherlandish paintings in Portugal, featuring panels of exceptional dimensions from the 15th and 16th centuries.
