The Monastery of Santa Maria da Vitória (better known as the Monastery of Batalha) is located in Batalha, Portugal. It was built in 1386 by King João I of Portugal as a thank you to the Virgin Mary for the victory at the Battle of Aljubarrota.
This Dominican monastery was built over two centuries until around 1563, during the reign of seven Portuguese kings, although from 1388 the first Dominicans lived there.
Late Gothic Portuguese architecture, or Manueline style, is considered a World Heritage by UNESCO, and on July 7, 2007 it was elected as one of the seven wonders of Portugal.
In Portugal, the IPPAR has classified it as a National Monument since 1910.
It has, since 2016, the status of National Pantheon.
