Festival de Música dos Capuchos

Two decades later, the Capuchos Festival “is reborn”, in the place that gives its name, the Capuchos Convent, and that inspires its programmatic concept: “five centuries of History and five centuries of Music”, thus reflecting the extraordinary creation music over these almost 500 years, from the Renaissance to contemporary music.

There are several concerts with a repertoire composed in the active period of the Convento dos Capuchos, since its construction in the middle of the XVI century to its decline, with the fall of Casa dos Távoras and the extinction of religious orders in 1834.
