It's a National Monument since 1910 because of the importance of the building regarded as a late gothic and Manueline style church and its tower as a Renaissance addition.

We could not go into the convent because they were doing construction on the property and the gates were locked. But, you can walk around this beauty and see it as you walk along the waterfront. It is a marvel of architecture and will be around for many years to come.
