Mosteiro da Batalha (Batalha Monastery)
Batalha · Portugal
From collectors
The Batalha Monastery, also known as the Monastery of Saint Mary of Victory, whose construction lasted for more than 150 years, resulted from the fulfilment of a promise made by King João I, in gratitude for the victory in Aljubarrota, on August 14, 1385, which assured him the throne and guaranteed the independence of Portugal. In the possession of the Dominicans until the extinction of the religious orders in 1834, this monument was later incorporated into the Public Treasury and is currently managed by Museus e Monumentos de Portugal and takes on the triple role of cultural, tourist and devotional space.
