  Pousada de Arraiolos - Nossa Sra. Assunção 

Arraiolos
Alentejo
Portugal

Restored sixteenth century convent situated in a valley in Arraiolos

The starting point for the Pousada was the restoration of a sixteenth century convent situated in a valley in Arraiolos a city that is world-famous for its carpets. 

The Pousada is an example of the achievement of perfect harmony between the traditional and modern concepts of Portuguese architecture and a felicitous example of adapting the austerity of a convent to today´sstandards of comfort. A wonderful excuse to get to know the traditional art of carpet-making.
