Museu Rainha Dona Leonor is a museum housed in the former Convent of Beja, Portugal.^[1]

Convent

The convent was founded in 1495. The convent of Nossa Senhora da Conceição, a congregation of Poor Clares in Beja, was the setting for the romance between nun Mariana Alcoforado and a French officer, as retold in Mariana (1997) and other novels.

It serves now as the City Museum.
