Monastery Farm of São Jorge de Milreu, a 37 hectare property consisting of a set of buildings of distinct nature and a vast area of forest and irrigation zone, located on the south bank of the Mondego River, the Farm combines the advantages of a bucolic environment with the proximity of the city of Coimbra and its University that is a World Heritage Site.
The urban part of the property has a built volume of about 6.500 sqm, divided into three distinct units, with a special emphasis on the cloister, the church, the refectory of the friars, a small chapel next to the cell of the monks, as well as a large 17th century corner balcony with a magnificent view of the Mondego River, baroque tiles present in much of the building and a painting by André Gonçalves dated from 1751.
Although the foundation of the Monastery of São Jorge is involved in some mystery, miraculous legends place it in the beginning of the XI century and in the middle of the next century it was inhabited by the regular canons of Saint Augustine.
Except for the period between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries, when it was in the hands of the Jesuits, the monastery would remain in the possession of the Augustinian until 1834, date when the extinction of the religious orders dictated the passage of the Farm and the monastery to the hand of private individuals, starting a path of a slow and progressive degradation of the building, which would lead to a state of almost complete ruin.
In 1999 the society Mosteiro de S. Jorge Construções Ltd acquired the Farm, starting a vast and complex campaign of works, with the aim of its adaptation to the needs of the University School Vasco da Gama, institution that worked there until late 2013.
Very interesting for a tourist investment by its location, built area, for its historical value, architectural and landscape.
