Alberto Sampaio Museum
The most regarded museum of the city was built in 1928 and his principal function was to maintain the collections of the extinct Colegiada de Nossa Senhora da Oliveira, of other churches and also convents from the Guimarães region which back then were in the possession of the Estate.
This museum has an excellent location due to the fact that is located in the center of the city. It has many collections of significant importance and in level of sculptures it has some that are from the medieval time and from the renaissance and 18 century.
In the jewelry section you will see pieces of great value like the cup of D. Sancho I, the processionals crosses and the magnificent processional gothic altarpiece of golden silver from the finals of the 19 century and finally a piece that deserves special attention is the D. João I loudel that he used in the battle of Aljubarrota.
If you decide to visit the museum we hope that you host with us, the hotel is located 5 minutes by foot of the museum so it will be close to visit.
