The Municipal Museum is dedicated to the painter Severo Portela. Although not a native, he did much to promote Almodôvar’s cultural and artistic development. The museum occupies the first floor of the Municipal Library and houses paintings, sculptures and drawings, as well as books and other objects that belonged to the artist. Other works by the painter can be seen at the Senhor do Calvário Chapel, outside the Misericordia Church, and at the baptismal chapel of the town´s Parish Church. Inside the museum, place of honour is given to the book containing the charter of Almodôvar, awarded by King Dinis in the 13th century.
