The Arouca Monastery was an important Cistercian monastery in Arouca in the north of Portugal. The buildings and art treasures bear witness to its great period in the 17th and 18th centuries. The former convent buildings now house a museum of sacred art. The church, which is dedicated to the Virgin Mary, is visited by pilgrims in particular as the place of work and burial of the Blessed Mafalda of Portugal. The building complex has been listed as a National Monument since 1910.
