About Filipa de Eça
Filipa de Eça was a 16th-century Portuguese nun. She was a great-great-granddaughter of king Pedro I of Portugal and Inês de Castro. Elected as Abbess of the Monastery of Lorvão in 1538, she was later expelled by king João III. She appealed the expulsion to the Pope, who nearly 15 years later confirmed her right to be restored to her dignity as Abbess of Lorvão.
