Monastery housing a church celebrating masses with Gregorian chants and a convent of 40 monks

It is one of the main monasteries of São Paulo. It was started in 1911 and finished in 1922. Of eclectic style with neo-Gothic elements, it presents numerous stained glass windows, sculptures and paintings, including the impressive baroque crucifix from 1777, the Portuguese image of Nossa Senhora da Conceição from the 18th century or the icon of the Virgin of Kasperovo from 1893. The complex has a church (Basílica de Nossa Senhora da Assunção) and a convent with 40 monks. Masses are celebrated with Gregorian chants every day, especially on Sundays.

Très beau bâtiment qui vaut vraiment la peine le détour. Dès l'extérieur la façade n'est pas très accueillante mais l'intérieur est très beau. Le style architecturale est tout à fait éclectique et très rare dans une église.

Monastère très agréable, reposant, sobre.
Visite gratuite.
Près du viaduc Efigenia, près de la station de métro 'San Bento', l'endroit est accueillant, possibilité de jouer aux échecs géants ou de se réposer sur des sièges à disposition.
