The José Malhoa Museum is dedicated to the life and art of José Malhoa (1855–1933), a leading figure in Portuguese naturalist painting. Housed in a former townhouse, the museum displays a comprehensive collection of his works, including landscapes, portraits, and scenes of rural life. Visitors can see his famous painting 'O Fado' and other pieces that capture 19th-century Portuguese culture. The intimate setting allows for a close-up appreciation of his brushwork and use of light.
