Lonely Planet review for Mosteiro de São Bento

Built in 1582, the huge Mosteiro de São Bento has some exceptional woodcarving in its church. Brazil’s first law school was housed here for 24 years. The monastery celebrates mass complete with Gregorian chants at 6am daily and 10am and 6pm Sunday. To arrive here, follow Av 10 de Novembro to Praça Monsegnor Fabrici and turn left on Rua São Bento.
