São Francisco Convent portrays an extraordinary building, with an architecture that harmoniously and singularly combines historic and contemporary heritage.
The enlargement and renovation projects for the convent building and the old church surprises by the magnificent dialogue between the conventual architecture of the 17th century and the contemporary aesthetics.
Equipped with a range of appealing spaces and extraordinary beauty, the convent offers the best material, technical and organisational conditions for holding scientific conferences, social and corporate events and incentives.
Both inside and outside areas are inviting and allow the simultaneous coexistence of diverse events, including cultural and artistic activities.
São Francisco Convent is an active partner in the cultural, social and economic development of the territory, taking on a role of facilitator and dynamiser, connecting the scientific and business systems, linking the city to its region and the world and taking part in innovation networks and territorial promotion.
