Conservation of the Cloister - Jerónimos Monastery and Church

The sixteenth-century Jerónimos Monastery is an architectural masterpiece filled with artistic elements that have been admired for centuries. The cloister of the monastery was a serene place for prayer, meditation, and leisure for the order’s monks. World Monuments Fund’s commitment to protect Jerónimos Monastery has been long-standing. As a whole, the goal of the comprehensive project is to minimize the risk of deterioration at the monument and ensure a cohesive treatment of the whole site.
