Apartment

Live Within 16th-Century History

This extraordinary apartment is a preserved wing of the Convento do Paraíso, founded in 1512. Once a vital part of a religious complex including the National Pantheon, the building was meticulously converted into a residence in 2013, uncovering ancient artifacts and ornamental stones during the process.

Historical Highlights:

The Fireplace: Features the original iron staple used to reinforce the stone after it cracked during the Great Earthquake of 1755.

The Architecture: The kitchen and bathroom occupy what were once 16th-century corridors; the smaller rooms served as the convent’s salting and water areas.

Hidden Details: Keep an eye out for the limestone chapel door at the building’s entrance and the "star" emblem of the Oratory Order.

Experience a rare piece of Lisbon’s survival and rebirth in a space that balances modern comfort with five centuries of history.
