Commissioned in 1620 by the Bishop D. João Coutinho, the construction was only concluded in 1622, being inaugurated on its patron saint’s day - Saint Anthony.
In the early 19th century due to the religious orders extinction, the National Republican Guard occupied the convent where they remain until this day.
