It houses a significant part of the work of José Manuel Soares, a painter born in 1932 in Odmira. The first rooms display the life and work of the artist, with information about his life path, exhibitions and some awards. It is divided into three parts:
-Illustration: reflects the taste for drawing that formed the basis of his artistic path;
-History of Portugal, where events and characters of the formation of the nationality, the consolidation of independence and the maritime discoveries are presented;
-Landscapes and Monuments, which portray the "rural country" of the 60's and 70's of the 20th century and the monuments, drawn and painted in different artistic techniques, give us the perception of the monumentality that characterizes the territory of Portugal and the importance that these patrimonies still have today.
