This museum, which is housed in the Convento de Jesus, displays a 16C Art Gallery, exhibiting a collection of sacred gold and silver plate and 16C Portuguese and Flemish painting.
Particularly impressive are the 14 panels of the altarpiece of the Igreja de Jesus de Setúbal, attributed to the Lisbon Workshop of Jorge Afonso and the result of the joint efforts of some of the most highly regarded artists of the time: Jorge Afonso, Gregório Lopes, Garcia Fernandes and Cristóvão Figueiredo.
