Connected to its twin church by a house, this baroque church has a well-known tiled side facade.

The Carmo Convent is an ancient Catholic monastery located in the city of Lisbon, Portugal. Dating back to 1389 and officially established by Constable Nuno Álvares Pereira, its architectural styles blend the plain Gothic style intertwined with influences from the Monastery of Batalha. Although the Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel was ruined following the 1755 earthquake, it remains the most impressive Gothic structure in the city. Today, the nave and apse have been transformed into an archaeological museum, displaying pieces from various eras of Portuguese history. These include pre-historical objects excavated from a 3500-1500 BC fortification, tombs such as Fernão Sanches' (son of King Dinis I), King Ferdinand I, and a 12th-century king; as well as azulejos, and Roman and Visigothic objects. The Carmo Convent has served multiple purposes throughout its life, including serving as the headquarters of the Republican Guard. Visitors admire its surviving features at the peaceful square in Chiado while being immersed in its fascinating past.
