Palácio dos Condes de Tomar - Brotéria

The Palace of the Counts of Tomar was built between 1852 and 1857 over pre-existing 16th century structures as the residence of the merchant Joaquim José Pereira de Sousa. From 1882 onwards, the Counts of Tomar lived there. In 1970 it was acquired by the Lisbon City Council, which installed the Hemeroteca there. Since 2020, it has housed the Brotéria Community, of the Society of Jesus, a house that is also a cultural center open to the public, with a library – around 150,000 monographs and more than 200 periodical publications – particularly valuable in the field of Theology, Philosophy, Literature and History , with an emphasis on the history of the Society of Jesus.
