Convento dos Cardais, 17th century convent in Misericórdia, Portugal.

Convento dos Cardais stands within the Misericórdia district of Lisbon, featuring architectural elements from the 1600s and traditional Portuguese azulejo tiles.

The Discalced Carmelite Order established this religious complex in 1671, and it remained operational until its disestablishment in 1876.

The convent maintains a collection of sacred artifacts and decorative arts, preserved through generations of dedicated religious sisters within its walls.

Visitors can explore the convent through guided tours that present the historical architecture and religious artifacts of this cultural heritage site.

This structure survived the devastating 1755 Lisbon earthquake, making it one of the few remaining pre-Pombaline buildings in the Portuguese capital.
