The Museum of Aveiro is housed in the former Convento de Jesus of the Dominican Female Order. This convent, one of the oldest in Aveiro, dates back to the 2nd half of the century. XV, founded by D. Brites Leitão and D. Mécia Pereira.
Princess Joana, daughter of Alfonso V, enters this house in 1472. Here she leads a life of sanctity, which leads to her beatification in 1693. The prestige of the convent was thus definitively associated with the presence of Princess Santa Joan and her religious worship.
