The stunning sacristy roof in the Convent of Christ in Tomar. Built by King Filipe I of Portugal at the end of the 16th century. Filipe was also Filipe II of Spain. The four central panels depict the coat of arms of Portugal and Castile & Aragon at either end. Between them is the 'Filipine Cross' of the Order of Christ and the depiction of an Armillary sphere. The Armillary sphere was an Astronomical instrument used as a device for navigation during the period known as the 'Age of Discoveries'.

The monumental Chapter Window in Tomar's Convent of Christ is covered in fantastic symbolic carvings. Each has its own meaning but there have been many differing interpretations over the centuries. One interpretation of this amazing belt is that this is the justice of mankind. As opposed to Divine justice represented by a carved chain on the other side of the window. Mankind's justice is adjustable like a belt. Divine justice is immovable and equal for all.

The Refectory in the Convent of Christ in Tomar was built around 1530. It has two pulpits and two long, fixed, marble topped, tables. Next to the Refectory is the kitchen and the area used for food preparation. The monks had to eat in silence with only the sound of the lesson being read to break the monotony.
