The monastery Tamarâes (Santa Maria de Tamarâes, Tamaranium) is a former Cistercian abbey in the District of Santarém in Portugal . It was about halfway between Fátima and Tomar .
history
The monastery probably goes back to a Benedictine foundation (see article Mosteiro de Alcobaça , section "Foundations of monasteries"). It joined the Cistercian Order in 1171 and was subordinated to the Alcobaça Monastery; so it belonged to the filiation of the Clairvaux Primary Abbey . In 1554 the monastery is said to have been dissolved. In the historical novel O Mosteiro de Sta. Maria de Tamarâes by José Maria Almeida Teixeira de Queiroz (around 1850) found entrance.
