The Municipal Museum in the centre of town is named after the painter Carlos Reis (1863-1940), who was born in Torres Novas. Exhibits include paintings by 19th and early 20th century artists and a 15th-century Gothic figure of Senhora do O as well as sacred art. One of the most interesting aspects of the museum is the collection of archaeological findings, including coins and bronze and ceramic artefacts, from the 4th century AD Roman ruins of Vila Cardilio about 3 km away (see separate entry).
