Mosteiro de Leça do Balio | Matosinhos | Portugal
Na posse dos Hospitalários, o primitivo mosteiro recebeu mais ampliações e reformas que lhe deram feições de natureza militar em estilo românico, cujo elemento mais marcante foi a construção de uma sólida torre ameada. A época em que os hospitalários tomaram posse do couto terá sido riquíssima para o mosteiro, uma vez que a ele pertenciam inúmeras igrejas do actual concelho de Matosinhos. O mosteiro foi reedificado por D. Gualdim Paes de Marecos, em 1180 e dedicado a Santa Maria.
O actual templo, síntese do estilo românico e gótico, remonta a uma grande campanha construtiva iniciada pelo prior da Ordem, D. Frei Estevão Vasques Pimentel, entre 1330 e 1336, quando foram renovados ainda os edifícios monacais e o claustro, dos quais vários elementos chegaram até aos nossos dias.
Aqui foi celebrado o matrimónio do rei D. Fernando (1367-1383) com D. Leonor Teles. Posteriormente, no contexto da Crise de 1383-1385, ali esteve o Condestável Nuno Álvares Pereira, em 1385, no início da jornada que lhe deu a posse do Castelo de Neiva e de outras localidades na região.
Na sequência do triunfo liberal no país, o mosteiro de Leça do Balio assistiu à extinção das ordens religiosas (1834), perdendo os seus privilégios e direitos que a ordem ainda possuía sobre a freguesia, sendo integrada no concelho de Bouças (actual Matosinhos), em 1835.
Encontra-se classificado como Monumento Nacional por Decreto publicado em 23 de Junho de 1910.
Na década de 1930 foi efectuada uma obra de restauro de todo o monumento pela Direcção Geral dos Monumentos Históricos.
Em 1996, o mosteiro começou a ser palco de obras de beneficiação suportadas pela Unicer, ao abrigo da Lei do Mecenato.
